The Netty Mountain Fire

Just when you think you have things under control Mother Nature decides you don't.  The Netty Mountain fire that was 100% contained jumped the containment line and is still burning with 75% contained right now.  One of the major roadways by that area has been closed making traveling around that area a bit difficult.  Cocke county fire department is busy fighting it and just wants people to avoid the area and to be careful not to spark other fires.  If the area could get some rain that would help a lot.  Unfortunately there are wild fires in several southern states due to drought situations with Georgia, North Carolina and Tennessee being the worst.  Come on Mother Nature, please send us some rain!
