Heard the sirens from my 7th floor office but was looking north so I didn't initially see it. Went to the west windows and saw lots of white smoke and knew it was about to really take off. Within another 10 minutes it was thick black smoke and the flames were jumping 20-30' high. Had a great vantage point and enjoyed watching the fire crews knock it back. Still can't believe that one firefighter in the third photo. He must have been 50' up with the thick smoke just hammering his face while he was working the water. By the time I left at 6:10, the black smoke was gone and things seemed like they were under control. Good job PFB!
