Wildfires in Tennessee December 1st, 2, 3rd, 2016 Unusual Danger
Unusual danger possibly because it is not really wildfire season, like what is expected in California and Oregon in July, August, and September.
What is going on here, or what went on at least up until today, is quickly and deadly approaching wildfires, where it appears there are a few of them, all within 5 or 10 miles of each other, surround, engulf, and sweep through certain areas.
Roads in the areas affected in about the past week up until now, Rt 71, 441, and east of Rt 321.
Gatlinburg area, Sevier County. Impacted area, as it stands now, is just north of Great Smoky Mountains National Park, a bit southeast of Knoxville, and southwest of Cherokee National Forest
Note: caution, fire might appear out, but, general rule, be wary of tinder which could cause re-eruption
