Sending prayers from Maui Hawaii. 😢 my home burned in the Lahaina Maui Hawaii wild fires in 2023.😢😮
I hope you get all the help you need in JESUS NAME AMEN 🙏🙌
@@Islandgirl-p7h omg I'm sorry for your loss
you know that wasnt by fluke right
@@Islandgirl-p7h I love you and miss you
Those were not wild fires. These fires are not either.
It would be helpful to bring up maps to tell the public where these fires are.
Oh my gosh your expectations are so high for a news station😂
I agree a map would be nice
It's online...
NO NEWS FOR YOU WHAT YOU THINK THIS IS A NEWS CHANNEL OR SOOMETHING
Can you read?
Praying for the safety of the firefighters
@@hhwin2198 the real heroes
Wht, they are all home sippin tea while the city burns. Did you see any firefighters or their trucks? Why not?
Maybe it is better than an Earthquake 🫨 if mother Nature had to do this
Increase their pay as appreciation
Sending prayers from Canada ❤
@@michaelacri2875 thank you Canada for the prayers you dispatched !
Im sending prayers from Pakistan via Fedex .
Thank your prime minister Zelinsky Canada. ❤
From BC. Canada
They have not arrived yet
This is horrific 😢
I cant believe what i am seeing rn
With those strong winds, it looks like a hellscape. 🙏🏻😳 Praying for the people and pets.
Yes crazy how fire in winter ?? I don’t believe in this fake news
@@GibsonguyLondonyou don’t need to believe dude
I can see it
Prayers for the firefighters and the homeowners for their safety.
Homes should be built of cement with slate roofs and a firewall perimeter of brick. And dry brush areas need to be bulldozed. People keep building tinder homes in fire areas. Totally stupid.
You have my vote best comment yet😊
God help these people, animals so devastating...
These are the rich disrespectful people who treat everyone like slaves in LA
Sending prayers from Texas to My Southern Californians 😞🙏🏼
Lmfao
praying for everyones safety down in SoCal!!
@@HorsepowerIndustries that and a dime will buy nothing😅🤣😂🤣😅
They will be fine they are rich
Why
I grew up in southern California, and I never thought I'd see Los Angeles burning.... this is like an apocalyptic scene. My heart goes out to those effected.
Sending prayers from Australia
That's terrible..Lord have mercy on those family's and the fire fighters..prayers .
I love visiting Los Angeles and recognize some of these places. Heartbreaking, I hope that at least everyone is safe and those who lost their homes will be able to recover and rebuild.
Prayers going up from Florida! May the fireman fighting it remain safe and back home to their families ❤ prayers for all involved. ❤🙏
To people who are affected and the firefighters, please stay safe.
I pray the girl got her horses to safety 😮😢
theres people losing their homes and lives at stake and you're worried about horses?
@Imbedroom look I just saw the news and they showed a girl rounded up the horses. Of course I care about what these people going through!! I went through it my self!!
Prayers to all.
Oh, that'll help. How about you send money along with your prayers? You know, something that will actually be useful.
@kimweaver1252 God bless you!!!
@@Jlmag I'm not holding my breath on that one.
@kimweaver1252 Why are you coming at me? I am not the only one who has prayed for all. I have been evacuate d numerous times. I don't understand your discontent towards me?... We all are struggling. Hope your day n life get better.
Sending Prayers to the First Respnders & all firefighters working on these Wildfires
Fire everywhere... The brave firefighters are risking their lives... unbelievable
I had no idea it was this bad.
Me too i was thinking it was cool
Right
God bless all the people who are in this area. I am saying prayers for all of you. May God watch over all of you and keep you safe. I am so sorry for those who are losing everything.❤
3 fires in the LA area now @12am
It's crazy, scary, and sad watching this
It's freaking January not August freaking winds making this harder
Yes. I just stepped outside onto my deck about 1/2 mile north of Koreatown, and was surprised at how strong the smell of smoke had become compared to only about 4 hours ago. Must be from the Pasadena fire.
Arson
@patit7634 it's the homeless people , they start fires because of the cold and it got out of control
@@LittleoldCio We don't know that yet, but it's possible. The Pacific Palisades area has few homeless encampments, as far as I know. It could be from a downed power line or even someone throwing a cigarette out a car window or throwing one on the ground. It started in some brush. I saw a lit cigarette on the sidewalk in that part of town a day or so ago and stepped on it to put it out. But on a windy day such a cigarette could be blown from a sidewalk into some brush. The winds were blowing street debris all over the streets today.
Have you ever heard of this thing called CLIMATE CHANGE. It causes things to be........ well.......... different. You know...... CHANGED.
God bless and protect California and its firemen.
No
This is just like Maui 😢
Our prayers are with you lovely Pacific Palisades residents.
The people in the palisades are not lovely people
Just sad 😢 Prayers to all
Thank you for praying
Multiple fires in southern California....I can ,smell the fire from Malibu...strong winds
Prayers from the Philippines🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I hope everyone stays safe and gets the help they need during this devastating time.
They are millionaires they will be ok 👍
Everyone in the county is in serious danger 🆘📛even if we are in the city because if a common fire breaks out, the powerful gusts of wind could carry the embers to other houses and spread the fire. This is a week where we should all be on our knees begging for mercy from the almighty.
You are 1000% correct
Amen.
No, we need to deal with global warming!
So sorry for these SoCal residents. Prioritize your safety. You cannot be replaced.
Lmfao.
So sorry for all those affected, ❤ from Canada
You’re calling them wildfires but are they? Or did someone set them just like every fire in California usually is. Because literally almost none of them are wild, most are set by people
Get ready for those insurance premiums to go through those charred roofs - if there's an insurance company willing to stick around.
And the surrounding area insurance premiums and probably surrounding states
So much for mandatory fire coverage. No insurance company will stick around. Odd timing I suppose
I just renewed mine in December and my renter's insurance went up 60%! Can't imagine what it will be like next December.
Some homeowners already had their fire ins policy canceled by the insurer.
Jeez, that reporter can barely stand up, the wind is so fierce. I feel so sorry for all those people who have lost everything, its devastating.
Prayers from Arizona in Jesus' Mighty name.
This looks like hell !!
Sending prayers🙏🏾
The media doesn't care about they're employees. These people are risking their lives to get footage. Ridiculous!
They have signed a contract to work in any situations, even wars
It's a job,just like firefighters, just like roofers, just like police officers, etc. Every job has its dangerous, u just have to take precautions!
Most of them are passionate to do so. Most of them are proud to be there, that’s press. Some of these people go to school to be in this exact scenario.
Is that/ was that, Rachel MAddow up there?
Better to have them there then hundreds of looky loos getting in the way of first responders.
Praying for everyone. Wondering why wider firebreaks aren’t used around residential areas?
The news reporters are having trouble standing up during the report. I can't imagine how fast that will blow embers all over the city
Praying 🙏🙏🙄
@@PaulinBivona pray more please 🙏 amen
Maybe if they qualify , they can get $700.00 like North Carolina
You still going on with that BS?!?!?!?!?!?! You don’t know anything! Typical of a Trump supporter!
How long will you repeat a debunked lie?
@@jeffhaggarty9879they have been infected with a brain virus. I personally know people like this. They still believe it and don’t think it’s been debunked. They are completely lost. It is sad. People I’ve known for a long time and they used to be normal, but have been infected and are now completely gone.
I know People in NC , I’m in NC …I know two couples that were turned down for the $700.00 …so don’t tell me it’s not true!!!
@ you fool! $700 was a no questions asked immediate needs handout. “Here is $700, go get the things you need to survive the next couple weeks”; that was not the whole of it or the end of the support the people of NC received. If you know people who were rejected, you may ask why. Seriously, trumpism is a mental illness
When was the last fire to blaze palisades. Their is a pattern here. Malibu, canyons, palisades, sun valley , burbank, no one questions the never ending turn over.
Life in the foothills in any state
This is how wildfires work and have worked for millions of years. It’s nature’s way of turning over the forests, brush, enriching the soil.
What do you mean? It was gust winds
Australia here. Thinking of you at this horrible time. We have bushfires regularly and it is so devastating. ❤❤
The days of constructing homes made from flammable materials, close together in wooded areas, and/or that have tress and other foilage near the homes, in environments notorious for high winds and grassy areas nearby which are susceptible to brush fires MUST COME TO A RESOUNDING END!🥺😫🙉🤯
The disastrous ensuing economic, emotional, physical and social consequences of this ineffable tragedy are profoundly terrifying to think about. The havoc brought to civilization of simply ultra-powerful winds, such as we are witnessing here, along with tornadic winds, cyclonic winds, etc., since first the flight of years began, are tantamount to the destructive results of the worst aspects of major warfare.
(The female reporter cannot maintain her balance, while the large firefighter I just watched her interview, had no problem keeping his. It would be good if she were replaced by a large gentleman who can "keep his feet." She has really been in a bad position for too long; it pains me to watch her suffer.)
Prayers for all who have and are being victimized by this gargantuan calamity.

Las Vegas, Nevada
There are so many factors. Incredibly sad
My grandparents lived in that area years ago.....fires never got down that far to threaten those homes. Those are middle class families of every nation and stripe. Never was this allowed to burn like this. CA vhoose better leadership!!!!
News Media avoiding telling how these fire started , why is that?
There is too much money being paid out to keep these homeless people on the streets…
You must have missed it. High winds knock down llive power lines. Extreme dry conditions turn everything into kindling. Extreme high winds blow flames and embers spreadibg the fire very quickly.
The news media aren’t fire investigators smh. The fire departments are a little busy trying to save lives and homes to begin their investigation. Stop with the conspiracy crap. My aunt just lost her home of over 50 years tonight in Pasadena on Bella Vista. It’s devastating and not some talking point to get everyone riled up about.
@@JG22-c5o so sorry to hear that 😢
@@angiehayes7397 Thank you. My comment was deleted I guess. 😢
Poor wildlife 😢
How did the fire start though
Why are these reporters there getting in the way and putting themselves in harms way?
Idk, for drama and views I guess. No concerns that they are getting in the way of the firefighters and emergency personnel and risking needing rescued themselves. All because it makes dramatic footage. 🙄
I think it is good that they are reporting this. Don't think they are in the way, but they are maybe putting themselves in harms way for reporting. This is just like Maui and many other fires these last years.
Ratings
Because they know we’ll watch. Ratings… engagement numbers… profit
Thoughts and prayers for all the people, pets, and wildlife impacted. Went through the horrific fire's several years ago in NorCal, then hurricanes where I am now, so I feel for everyone. It is scary and hard.
This is being done intentionally. Pay closer attention. These "news" stations are involved in the spreading of "misinformation."
One or 2 houses burned to the ground cancels out all the CO2 etc electric cars ever built didn’t exhaust. Ironically these fires may be caused by electric lines arcing in the wind.
“Strong winds”…sounds like Maui. 🤔
Where's Mayor Bass?
Wow many prayers
Great reporting but please don’t risk your lives to get these shots. God help these firefighters, reporters and everyone in this area.
I hope that their fire insurance companies won't screw these poor people!😮😮😮😮
Just like Maui I should know I am a Lahaina Maui wild survivor. Love and prayers. 😢
Jasmine no time for politics right now!! not fake news!
Praying for the residents, Fire fighters and first responders in LA and So Cal.
Really strange how we have two fires during the winter. Wonder how the fires got started? Very sad for those who lost their homes.
Praying for the safety of everyone, every life
I just left LA 2 days ago
🙏🏾
There is no water in these hydrants. Where is Karen Bass?!
California needs back up from neighboring states. they just dont have enough resources to deal with this
You can smell the fire in the South Bay - absolutely devastating. Prayers to everyone & the animals ♥️
“Bush” fire or “brush” fire? but no trees or bushes burning, just houses, what is keeping these fires burning? why is no one talking about the EV’s which would also be burning outside every home? Is this a battery fire?
Thank Mayor Bass for defunding our fire department by 25 million. Hope she’s having fun in Africa.
Please leave for your safety very dangerous now
Praying
My client's family is in a very bad situation, please pray for them.
Their home is very dangerous, they are there.
Well, the suburban model of development is becoming quite unsustainable in areas of high fire and storm risk. Don't think we here in Florida don't see the writing on the wall. We definitely. I use to have a house, but it has new owners. I kept a small condo and that is probably all the real estate I want to keep in FL. I don't think this area will burn. But the OSHA flood maps show when Sea Levels are Seven (7) feet higher than currently, this complex starts to go underwater and then I have water front property, that will probably become part of a lowland marsh and eventually part of a coastal dune area and eventually in 100 or so years part of the coastal tidal zone or even the off shore reef.
Look at the history of Florida, not over decades, but over thousands of years. There were times when Sea Level was 300 plus feet lower and times when it was over 100 feet higher. That later scenario would inundate about 90 percent of Florida. Imagine that? Florida reverts to being a series of sand bars and dotted with small remote islands where higher elevations exist.
Climate change is moving steadily forward and we humans really can't quit grasp the consequences and the magnitude of the changes that will occur.
Poor animals 😢
HOW did the insurance companies. KNOW to Drop People's Fire Insurance?????
HOW?????
Growing up I lived very near there! so my shares of fires, but this is horrible.
Sure would suck to find out your place didn't make it live on tv
@aaron5222 That’s actually what just happened to my aunt tonight. She evacuated with her neighbor (both elderly, widowed women) to my parents’ home in SCV. They watched her home of over 50 years burn down on Bella Vista, right next to the Eaton Canyon visitor center. Her neighbor’s house is still standing. So many memories at that home since the late 1960s…😢
What started the fire?
Wind
Yea right wind that what they want you to think a bunch of crape to me it's sound like arson to me that they ant telling the dam truth who did this
It’ll take them a while before they’re able to find out. They need to put out the fires first.
Put water on the hot spots too
Another expert sitting at home
To All Firemen. May God Protect you All - In. Jesus Name--Amen !
Oh the anger and betrayal people will feel in the near future when it finally come to pass that technoligies and processes been available to end these fires pretty much instantly...
Mercy mercy for that poor people LORD bless them 🙏
You are right
Thank God we helped those homeless score more drugs rather than spend on wildfire prevention
The wind is so strong it blows the water away from the fire
It is not accident, it like Maui
@@yzam1188 cLifonia have lithium, they did the same thing like north carolina
Do you not know how the weather works? Santa Ana winds with low humidity and no rain??? That's the tri factor for fires
I'm praying for everyone!! So sad!!
Most comments are being taken down.
Prayers for all, be safe. Let it go.
This is horrific! Hopefully some investigation will illuminate why there was no water for the fire services to use? I heard that there was little hose pressure and the no water to fight the flames with?
Repent California, repent.
What caused these fires??? Why???
Very windy all day; up to 80mph winds, and heavy wind expected to continue for at least another 12 hours; which will spread these fires and potentially start new ones
People prayed for California to burn. The people get screwed, and want God to burn it all.
The Lord caused these fires 🔥 he is very very very angry with all of us for all the wickedness and sin we commit daily and not repenting for it. If anyone thinks the strong winds are a coincidence they should think again. But this is only the beginning.
Very windy, apparently knocked some power lines down that's what started the fire and the winds are too strong to put it out, it's actually really bad
This will be similar to Maui , the devastation.
No one’s even talking about Pasadena!
When they mention Altadena, that's the Pasadena area. They started covering it a lot over the past few minutes.
Yes they are
The animals 💔
It doesn’t look very windy in this footage
These fires are almost always in rural areas. How did these fires start????
Leave your lawn sprinkles on and running
Sending prayers to family and everyone in California including animals! 😔🙏🙏🙏
Reporter says he has to get out of here and he is told yea get to a safe place we will you you back. He Has to get out!
