The Shingle Fire on Cedar Mountain is now 2400 acres zero containment and many mandatory evacuations, is that serious enough for you to cover this story??????????? SR 14 is also closed at 89/SR14 at Todds Junction

Where are the updates on the Shingle Fire in Swain's Creek? Are your reporters too lazy to go all the way out there and leave precious Salt Lake City area????

How come you give us a sheriff number instead of information that is more detailed with the Shingles Fire. Or is it because its not a populated area. No its better to see "attempted team of comedy sportz" characters with Budda instead maybe an article on what you may way to put together and handy if your are in the a fire threatening area. And updated acreage burned.
