I bet blue green has already mailed us a maintenance bill for some sort of clean up fees.

My sister arrived there today and has had to evacuate. She said it was hard to even breathe. I feel for the residents of that area. Hopefully the Good Lord will send more rain than forecasted to put out the fires.

It's started raining in the last few minutes but I'm afraid that it's gotten so far out of hand that it won't be enough. Some of the videos are incredible.


My old lady just showed me some videos from FB and it looks like day light in the middle of gatlinburg

The videos posted from inside the Park Vista are terrible. appears to be surrounded by a wall of fire.

Looks to be close to pigeon forge now. Gatlinburg is starting to get a little rain but I think it's too far gone now. Prayers to all affected

We've lost power and have just enough battery for this final update for the night. Rain has finally arrived! Another band of rain should follow this one as well. Winds should die down overnight. So we're hopeful that with the rain and diminishing wind it will help the numerous firefighter crews suppress these fires. Our prayers continue to be with everyone involved for their continued safety and strength. We'll be back online with more updates as soon as power is restored. Thank you, all, for your love of the Smokies and the support of the men and women putting their lives on the line to protect the area, homes, businesses, and lives.

It's bad up there. We've been keeping up with it here at work. Over 12,000 without power and climbing. The rain has stopped and the winds are picking back up.

Casey, you need to change your plans. CD.

I have family that live there and I own property there. Cross your fingers for rain.

reports are that, as of this morning, Ober Gatlinburg has been destroyed (per a local news station). also hearing that a lot of the chalet neighborhoods up Ski Mountain Road have heavy damage (many just gone). The article I read said it was "approaching the Park Headquarters" (Sugarlands Visitor Center) but didn't mention any damage to it (yet).

Apparently a lot of the homes and buildings up Airport Road, behind the space needle and heading up toward the Park Vista and Roaring Fork, have burned or are burning. Knoxville News Sentinel is reporting the Park Vista is "on fire" but hasn't said to what extent.

The entire Spur (area between Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge) has apparently burned or is in the process of burning.

The chair lift in town in Gatlinburg is reported to have been destroyed and one article I read said the old Gatlinburg Inn next to it may have been damaged but not sure to what extent...

take all of the above with a grain of salt because it's hard to get any definitive info right now...

I hate that many of the homes, and the few remaining older hotels and buildings are burning and being destroyed, but all the redneck tourist crap in Pigeon Forge like the stupid dinner shows and go-kart tracks are apparently going to be fine.

Pretty sure that little wedding chapel they've been showing is the one where my wife and I got married. It looks like a bad situation up there. I can only imagine what those high winds would do to a fire like that.

Ober Gatlinburg posted a video on their FB page and a statement saying the property was fine, with no damage.

Ober Gatlinburg put out a message on Twitter this morning saying that their building was fine.

The Riverhouse Motorlodge appears to have burned.

I just saw that....like I said before it's hard to tell what is accurate and what is not. You'd think you could trust reports from sources like TEMA and the Knoxville News Sentinel but I don't think anyone actually knows what's going on. glad it's ok. Hopefully some of the other reports from the last 12 hours or so are exaggerated, but I'm afraid a lot of them aren't.
