California Burning AGAIN!

(1/4) > >>

YosemiteBen:
Well, Here we go again. Look up CalFire - Camp Fire for more details. This fire grew to 70,000ac in 24 hours. It has burned over the town of Paradise, CA and is impacting Chico, CA. I have many Family and Friends directly impacted by this fire. Some had to drive through it to get out. If you are on the monster FB you can check my shares for videos, photos and reports. There are many people unaccounted for. So far, not much has been confirmed. this is steep dry terrain and we had a dry, cold front pass through with high winds. My great-grandparents original home where they built their family is most likely gone. I lived there for a short time as a kid. Lived in Chico for many years. Then there are more fires in Southern California. California's fire season is now all year. All prayers appreciated!

Ben, the son of a friend lives in Ventura. Haven't heard from him. Will contact his parents(friends here).
Poor California. Seems like it has had more of their share of disasters.
Thanks for the update.

That is a real fast moving fire!b. Does seem like one gets t least controlled and another pops up to take it's place.  Hope all are safe!

Terrible thing to have to contend with there.Thoughts and prayers to you all.Just from grass fires getting out of hand sometimes around here with that wind it's amazing how fast a fire can move.No time to react properly before it's done it's damage.
