HUGE fire in my town... I am 1 mile away

I drive by this warehouse many many times.
When I was 18, my dad was assigned the contract to haul the gravel to build this place.
It was called FarmHand at that time. They built farm machinary of some sort but went out of business and this place has since then become a storage facility.
This will be the final fire for this place. It has caught fire many times in the past.
No one is hurt..... but they do not have enough water and are calling in Waconia, Arlington, Chaska, Glencoe ANYONE that has water.
Cops are everywhere.

There is video.
Ken says the wind shifted. And its now hovering over our farm which is 1 mile to the south on the highway. Thick thick smoke everywhere.
