THE FIRES OF 2002 This Colorado fire situation is really out of control.  Here is a great source for information on it at CSU (much better than CNN).  The Hayman fire (87,000 acres) is growing at a rate of 1/2 mile and hour on 2-7 mph winds.  Those winds are expected to pick up to 7-16 mph with gusts to 25 mph tonight.  Very scary.
