I was wondering, when Ducks said her parents were in a flying ember alert: what do you do? I'm not trying to be funny, I mean do you have to pretty much keep an eye on your house at all times, or try to wet it down? Seriously, that would be hard to sleep, or not be completely on edge all the time, if you don't know if an ember could land and catch your house on fire.

Yep, you basically put the hose on the roof and leave it there if there are embers in the air. You're also meant to make sure your gutters are empty of debris such as leaves and sticks and it's always a good idea to get rid of trees and large shrubs close to the house although it's not a rule, just a suggestion.
