Whew.

About an hour ago, I started smelling smoke, and then heard sirens. Stepping outside, I found the neighborhood hazy with smoke, with one of the apartment buildings down the block apparently being on fire. Right now, thought, the emergency vehicles are gone and with them the smoke. Hope no one got hurt.

Edit: A quick drive around the block doesn't reveal any obviously fire-damaged property, so either it was a unit hidden from view from the street, or just a lot of internal damage without making it to the outside.
