Four Mile Canyon Fire near Boulder, Colorado

Our thoughts go out to the good folks up in Fourmile Canyon near Boulder, Colorado, where an untamed wildfire has been burning for several days now, causing significant property damage, with several people still missing. See more photos tagged here and a set from ral11us that shows life on the ground here.

Our thoughts go out to Christchurch, New Zealand, which endured a 7.1 earthquake on September 4, 2010, perhaps the worst to hit New Zealand in 80 years, and which is now threatened with gale force winds. Photographs from locals are making their way onto Flickr; try a search here.
