...in conclusion... [to a] different event, such as a planned evacuation for a mysterious or a fictional happenstance (like the movie The Forgotten or such similar urban-legends), no major non🔥related town-wide evac'n was reportedly recorded in Northern Arizona in 2003. Other large evacuations in that era, such as Show Low in 2002, were also wildfire-driven.

To include Iconic local Landmarks like The General Store.

The evacuation is noted for several reasons [that align w/ your description]: Suddenness: The Aspen Fire began June 17, 2003, & was initially miles away. However, shifting winds/June 19 caused the fire to "blow up" & roar through the town w/in hours, giving residents almost no time to leave. Destruction: Nearly 300 homes & businesses disseminated. ~2•b•Cont'd~

Do you have a list of names of these stories? The story where the car hits the dog man, then it chases him and gets hit by a semi, then chases him up a tree and follows him to his house is my all-time favorite story!
