I received the following report via the local Shelby group. Anybody
have particulars?
>This fire was further south of Reno this time...snip... It burnt
>3800 acres and no final count on homes lost yet but looks like at
>least 20 and the main Highway 395 is still closed. High winds from a
>winter storm fanned the fire once again after the driest winter on
>record so far. Rain/snow has started today so hope is it will dampen
>things down, but a flood warning was issued due to all the barren
>de-vegetated ground.
>
>A friend who collects Corvettes has a second home and workshop in
>that area and he was hit hard, losing a Sunbeam Tiger, Pontiac Le
>Mans, zero mile C4 LT1 Vette and a '64 Vette.
