The Firefighters did an AWESOME job keeping it from spreading, it was kinda breezy last night, and the buildings in Meredith are very close together, and everything is so dry from the lack of rain, so it would have been really easy to have the whole downtown Meredith burn.

You're right. It could of very easily been a disaster with the wind. That same day in Lowell, kids playing with a lighter in an alley behind a vacant house ignited a fire. Three houses cauught on fire displacing alot of families. It could of been alot worse if not for the quick response of the fire dept. Sad thing is, due to budget cuts, the fire station 2 streets over from the blaze was not manned, if it had been, crews would of arrived sooner.
