Spokane Fire: A Weatherman's Firsthand Story
Three wildfires exploded across Spokane — forcing 60,000 people to evacuate and destroying homes in minutes. KXLY weather anchor Mark Peterson was one of them.
He joined The Gee and Ursula Show to share what he saw. Pine trees exploding from the heat. Families with only minutes to grab what mattered. A teenage girl trying to save three cans of hairspray while her family screamed at her to grab clothes.
His home was spared. His neighbors' were not.
He also had a critical message about the 26 private drones interfering with firefighting operations — and how you can help RIGHT NOW.
