Burning tires are very difficult to extinguish. Recall that the "camp fire girls" in Naples used 'em for warmth in the winter, driving the city fathers (well, at least the mothers) nuts.

This thing is like that. But it's compounded by being directly on top of the Edwards Acquifer, an extremely sensitive underground reservoir that's San Antonio's only source of water. That severely limits the options available for fighting the sucker.

Just heard that the high school's ag ed barns will be evacuated tomorrow of their 400 head of livestock. And up to seven more schools could be impacted if the wind shifts.

Stay tuned.
