This is terrifying for every living being there, and I’m so sorry they’re going through this.
Wait until it rains. The whole area will be a toxic hazardous mess because of all the stuff that wasn't supposed to burn. There is a toxic dusting over everything that property and insurance companies won't tell you about.
European here with an honest question, or two..... 1. Why are those hills surrounding such a dense population not under a proper fire mitigation program? 2. Why the law banning the sale of small engine powered equipment that is needed to clear dead brush (fuel)? 3. Why were no fire breaks cut into the hills surrounding such a dense population? Here in Switzerland, we demand that our government take steps to mitigate (not eliminate) avalanche dangers BEFORE spending money on anything else?
You will find video evidence when Trump was president before telling Newscum to sort this problem out by clearing deadfall and raking. Unfortunately CNN wont show this these old conversations as it wont look great for the Democrats.
It’s a chaparral area - the plants are full of volatile oils- very different than much of the world- example- parts of Australia, Spain. The land mass of California is much greater than people realize-
Part of the reason this spread so quickly is the hurricane force winds, not only did it make the fire spread extremely fast, but it was too dangerous for any aircraft to fly in the winds. This means no airdrops of retardant/water for the first day or so, it was a double whammy of awfulness. They may have been able to curb the damage more if they had been able to fly.

Phoenix is in a drought, it’s much more dry here than LA. Yesterday was very windy here too but the difference is Phoenix is not covered in shrubs, trees hills and everything flammable. So when you live in a area that is prone to high winds and fires it’s up to everyone to to do whatever is necessary to limit brush, hedges, trees and anything that can cause a fire storm before it hits. My heart is with my neighbors in California.

This is absolutely heartbreaking to see. My thoughts go out to everyone affected by these devastating fires. Let’s hope for swift containment and safety for all those impacted.
Hope is a good thing, but not for Americans who sponsor other people's wars and who also destroy homes and support other people's wars, and put their stupid opinion as if they know everything, when in fact they are a common disgrace. I wish everyone survived there, but I have no more pity for the fact that they lost their homes, let them take their heads and go to the government, since America is such a democracy and freedom of speech (Americans as usual in the comments will be outraged and will do nothing)
I’m feel so sorry for what happened down there I living in North California we’re feel you how much devastating out there I hope the community stands together to do what it can for disaster relief 🙏🙏
I can’t believe people are wondering why the water pressure went down. If a 12” main is feeding a neighborhood and you have 10 or more fire hoses connected to hydrants, pipes in homes bursting and spigots melting and releasing water everywhere their will be a huge loss in pressure. Then multiply that by hundreds. The pumps and pipes cannot keep up with the demand. It’s not a California thing it would be the same anywhere.
This is a blatant lie. California does a huge number of controlled burns and the number increases every year. Stop believing the BS that Fox is feeding you. 5 seconds of googling could verify this for you.

A fire hasnt hit areas like this ever. People talking like they know our county and history. No rain, high winds= fire for us. It also hit at a time when fires dont happen so less help ready to step in like in August. No volunteer firefighters. Are you starting to get the picure. You also cant stop it because of the 40-80mph Santa ana dry winds.
@@lisafoy1328 Her city council lowered the budget for the fire dept and almost every other city dept but raised the budget for police (as if the police need any more money), and she's off gallavanting in Africa while this is happening.

No one talked about how insurance companies canceled all fire coverage before this disaster happened and how come everything that is blue didn't catch on fire 😳
The results that are being shown of some of thr aftermath of the fires make what is happening reminds me of how it looks in Ukraine and in Palestinian areas. Very sad for all. The death count is not nearly as bad.
The best comments are the Billionaires angry they fired all the middle class tax payers at their companies, and then wonder why there isn't any fire departments or water - while billionaires, they pay zero in tax and the taxes they collect to pay for fire departments, come from the very same people they fired to save money and make profits. SOme true LeopardsAteMyFace going on.
It's so disgusting how completely lacking in basic human decency so many people are. And totally lacking in any understanding of the complexity of life and the natural world. I guess it makes them feel good about themselves to mock suffering. Sad and pathetic.
I found the girl saying that her relatives are having "a lot of laughs" extremely inappropriate. I understand they're happy to be all together, but have some respect for the people who lost everything
Let’s not forget that the mayor of LA just made 17 million dollar budget cut towards the fire department. I mean shit they don’t even have water in fire hydrants.
Every year we face tornados and hurricanes, snow/ ice, fire, etc but you have to do measures to prevent wild fires , it rained this year a lot filled up lake mead real quick in spring
I have a genuine question as a European: Are you sure that a house made out of wood is the best idea? Why not concrete? I know you Californians prefer this for cost and earthquake reasons ... but this is just madness. I look at this and only see brick balls standing.
The wind is really what kept the firefighters from being able to act right away to contain the fires. If the wind was less of a factor the fires wouldn't be so widespread
It looks a bit like Gaza 🇵🇸 at least the evacuees are not being bombed, shot at by snipers, prevented from access to food, water and medical assistance. How can the US government spend billions of tax payers money to destroy and set Palestine 🇵🇸 on fire but their own brave fire service personnel don’t have enough water to put out the fires? May God bless all the people of the world who are suffering from natural and man made disasters ❤
the fact that they claim climate change is the issue, while they dump 4yr of CO2 in 2 days, you would think they would have water shelters everywhere because "climate change" is coming to get them, but lets be honest, if you ever had the SMELT for the French Laundry, Newsome understands!
Maybe, but their ideology did not burn, and is basically immune to any form of attack. Indeed, if anything, for most of them, viewing this fiery apocalypse will only confirm their core belief that man is out of step with nature and must mend his ways to avoid a repeat of such scenes.
@@polarvortex3294 Even the people who lived there before Americans were smart enough to control the brush and do controlled burns as well. Maybe we should give CA and the people there back to them. In returning the land they wouldn't be able to defy it and we'd be free from the morons.
Says in the news it's a "Wildfire" and Wildfire's happen in places in the world that are constantly hot throughout the years. I'm guessing California didn't get enough rain recently on top of being hot and some stuff started catching fire from direct sun light and no rain.
I live in LA and sometimes you drive by those hills and think "damn i wish i lived up there" but when those fires come it makes you rethink that...

Government officials never help. They are always there for themselves and their own power and profit. Look to them at your own peril
CA is $27 Bil in debt prior to this disaster.
Why are the trees still standing with their leaves/needles? Looks suspicious. We need an investigation by a forensic arborist.
Poor people. God help them
they’ll be alright. these are rich people that couldn’t care less about you
@@StrykeSZN Many of these people are not rich.
@StrykeSZN yeah. Probably
I grew up near this hills it hurts me to see so much destruction in a place I used to live in
US should focus solving it's own crises rather than funding Gen0 sides abroad
Please God please protect them all.
Now the people of America will be able to understand what kind of experience the people in Gaza are facing.
nothing to compare tool
This is the wildfire equivalent to the perfect storm, with weather conditions combining to create the worst, tragic outcome.
Gavin Newsom is to blame,
A fire hasnt hit areas like this ever. People talking like they know our county and history. No rain, high winds= fire for us. It also hit at a time when fires dont happen so less help ready to step in like in August. No volunteer firefighters. Are you starting to get the picure. You also cant stop it because of the 40-80mph Santa ana dry winds.
Karen bass needs to go
Grow up 👈 unpatriotic 👈
@@lisafoy1328 Her city council lowered the budget for the fire dept and almost every other city dept but raised the budget for police (as if the police need any more money), and she's off gallavanting in Africa while this is happening. You grow up. Who the actual fuck lowers the budget for a fire dept in SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA??
No one talked about how insurance companies canceled all fire coverage before this disaster happened and how come everything that is blue didn't catch on fire 😳
Looks like the place has been nuked.
Yeah god wrath natural nuke yep karma look what you done the last year and where , what the tax money finance, believe me hell fire is much worse
A dose of reality for what’s coming
How did it start????????
The results that are being shown of some of thr aftermath of the fires make what is happening reminds me of how it looks in Ukraine and in Palestinian areas. Very sad for all. The death count is not nearly as bad.
Get ready for the Trump rhetoric, Hawaii paradise no help coming.
Every home represents a family in LA but not in Gaza. How biased can you be senator
The hateful comments I’ve read are disgusting. My God, please help the people affected by this disaster🙏🙏🙏 My prayers are with you all.
Looks mostly peaceful too me.
I mean yes, but I wouldn’t consider criticizing their incompetent governor hateful…this could have been prevented
Haven't seen one hateful comment. I've seen a couple criticizing the government. But not hateful.
The best comments are the Billionaires angry they fired all the middle class tax payers at their companies, and then wonder why there isn't any fire departments or water - while billionaires, they pay zero in tax and the taxes they collect to pay for fire departments, come from the very same people they fired to save money and make profits. SOme true LeopardsAteMyFace going on.
It's so disgusting how completely lacking in basic human decency so many people are. And totally lacking in any understanding of the complexity of life and the natural world.
I guess it makes them feel good about themselves to mock suffering. Sad and pathetic.
I found the girl saying that her relatives are having "a lot of laughs" extremely inappropriate. I understand they're happy to be all together, but have some respect for the people who lost everything
Let’s not forget that the mayor of LA just made 17 million dollar budget cut towards the fire department. I mean shit they don’t even have water in fire hydrants.
Yeah but, but orange man bad
@no_way4165 you guys are so pathetic
1:52 I know it rained in early November because we were visiting the area and it rained.
Looks like gaza
Well Israel wants America too, with Trump maybe 🤔
Long live Israel, don’t start wars you can’t win.
@@Ryanthechiefthe why did Israel fund Hamas? Or hit the SS LIBERTY
@ Israeli is without America
Hollywood/Gaza both are 😈
Newsom and bass needs to go
Every year we face tornados and hurricanes, snow/ ice, fire, etc but you have to do measures to prevent wild fires , it rained this year a lot filled up lake mead real quick in spring
I have a genuine question as a European:
Are you sure that a house made out of wood is the best idea? Why not concrete?
I know you Californians prefer this for cost and earthquake reasons ... but this is just madness.
I look at this and only see brick balls standing.
Oh yes we are proud of our Brick balls 😂😂
Not ideal in an earthquake alley.
@@OMyers-h8y "not ideal" i understand.
But their choice resulted in this.
So, what's worse? Using Wood vs fires or Concrete vs Earthquakes?
The millionaires have bunkers, so they will be fine
@@danialhillmann5374 Kind of a weird reply.
I appreciate the coverage and message this news reporting reflected. I'm thinking of all caught up in this and wishing best for each.
if you think this is apocalyptic your not ready for whats coming
What’s coming?
Its me. Im the one that's coming 👇 and you better watch out
We is just getting warmed up😂😂😂
This happened where I live. The Alameda Fire. These scenes give me flashbacks. Looks just like what I remember.
Remember more than 30000 Homes burnt in usa and israeli in Gaza
Yep - but rich American lives are worth more - hence the nonstop coverage
THAT'S TRUE, THEY ARE WORTH MORE.@@SVmathfarmer
How did the fire start?
It was more then one fire!
(Lightning?)
God bless those in the midst of horrific fires.Prayers up😮😢😢😢😢
What do people think happens when you have a thousand homes on fire where the water lines in the home break?
Tell Israel to send aid.
Naw just ask them to let the aid in.
The wind is really what kept the firefighters from being able to act right away to contain the fires.
If the wind was less of a factor the fires wouldn't be so widespread
It looks a bit like Gaza 🇵🇸 at least the evacuees are not being bombed, shot at by snipers, prevented from access to food, water and medical assistance. How can the US government spend billions of tax payers money to destroy and set Palestine 🇵🇸 on fire but their own brave fire service personnel don’t have enough water to put out the fires?
May God bless all the people of the world who are suffering from natural and man made disasters ❤
42.000+ vs 5 dead? Yea sure lil abdul 🤣
dim wit
SAVE ANIMALS☝️
The environmental justice group just lost 25 years of ozone carbon emissions from this devastating fire 🔥 storm.
the fact that they claim climate change is the issue, while they dump 4yr of CO2 in 2 days, you would think they would have water shelters everywhere because "climate change" is coming to get them, but lets be honest, if you ever had the SMELT for the French Laundry, Newsome understands!
These environmental groups are just as guilty of murder just like Newsomes administration is.
Maybe, but their ideology did not burn, and is basically immune to any form of attack. Indeed, if anything, for most of them, viewing this fiery apocalypse will only confirm their core belief that man is out of step with nature and must mend his ways to avoid a repeat of such scenes.
@@polarvortex3294 Even the people who lived there before Americans were smart enough to control the brush and do controlled burns as well. Maybe we should give CA and the people there back to them. In returning the land they wouldn't be able to defy it and we'd be free from the morons.
@@polarvortex3294 there's at least one suspected arsonist already arrested
I wonder why there was a fire.
Wonder who will profit
@ what the hell you talking about
Says in the news it's a "Wildfire" and Wildfire's happen in places in the world that are constantly hot throughout the years. I'm guessing California didn't get enough rain recently on top of being hot and some stuff started catching fire from direct sun light and no rain.
Pray for the people that effected by fire 🥲🥲🥲
