I'm sure it takes more than one fire to destroy you like that. If one fire can destroy your lungs than I guess I'm destroyed right now cause the house across the street from me caught on fire last week and I took in huge amounts of smoke

Yeah that is true, most may not be able to get to be able to build their houses again because developers will buy up the land and insurance may not cover a lot of these houses.
I heard some of the electrical infrastructure hasn’t been updated since the 1950’s and that has previously caused problems. Add onto that fire funding reportedly being slashed by millions, water retention restrictions, limited ability to remove risk prone trees/forest and people building in fire prone areas, it’s the perfect storm, so I wonder if this will deter any developers?

@@disneylandx123 in California? No, the reason this is getting attention is because the fires have been getting more intense and more frequent as time goes on- because like I said- our government wants to pretend global warming doesn’t exist.
As a human being, those two tears hurt me, the first tear is Gaza and the second tear is California, but what is not allowed is the tear caused by a human being intentionally against another weak human being, and that is Gaza’s tear, but what was caused by God is just patience and forgiveness, and California’s tear brings us closer to God.

A long time ago fires regularly burned in the hills of Southern California. It was part of nature's way of cleaning things out and starting over. But there were no people living in these places. Now all of Los Angeles Country is one just hunk of sprawl and the fires have decided to leave the hills and move into residential areas in the flats which historically have never seen this sort of thing. That is the main difference between these fires and previous fires.
In part, but from what I have read policies of water catchment , no updating of outdated electrical infrastructure, firefighting funding slashed or not wisely implemented also contributed
@@jule3480 Oh yes, one of the more informed comments Ive noticed; Much over a long period of time have contributed the increasing issues and its needed not to be this way. Its not really to be pinpointed to one certain things but decades of gross and negligent management from local, state and federal gov't, corporate entities and farmers among few all which have done disservice to the regular (even the irregular "richies") people in the region.

Secondly the ai clip he doesn’t have a helmet on and his hair is somehow dodging fire embers and extinguishing them on contact. Heck outta here this is as much bs as their push for their lil pHARMya poke pals.
Yeah. Can you imagine if Palestine was "allowed" to have journalists report what happens there everyday? Feel for the people here, wish everyone safety. But families are destroyed every day in Gaza, children killed, innocent men and women dead. But a few millionaires homes burn down and we all panic. The worth of human life is the same - everywhere. Wishing safety and peace for all.
This is a bad one is an understatement. People, I hope, that the level of danger this fire posed was made manifestly clear. Get out or you won't survive it.

It hasnt rained here in CA since early 2024. I know because the drain outside is clogged and will cause flooding on the street with the tiniest of rains..
If the timeline is correct the first of these named fires started about 11AM in Pacific Palisades at Piedra Morada Drive. The wind has been very strong and from the northeast and traveling in a southwesterly direction. Sometime later additional fires started, but the odd thing is they are not downwind of the Palisades Fire so how does a fire skip backwards against the wind? I'd like some clarification on the timeline of each of these fires and confirmation of the wind directions at each of these fires. I don't want to jump out on a burning limb, but I have to ask how the later fires were started if they were upwind of the original fire beginning in Pacific Palisades!
With the heated Santa Ana winds, fires start in dry brush just about anywhere. Has been happening for literally thousands of years there. Difference now is there's more to burn 🤷
@bendy6626 Well actually there's less vegetation given the huge swaths of land carved up for businesses or housing. Of course, those buildings, be they commercial of residential, will also burn and once started those structures can fuel a large surge in the fire. Southern California, hasn't any significant rain since May and are well below average over that interval. That means the vegetation is ripe to burn and with the Santa Anta winds hitting upwards of 100mph all it would take is one idiot or one terrorist to do what is likely to exceed $10B in damage and might be 5 times that.
Terrible occurrence. I suggest they cut down all the decorative palm trees. As Cooper pointed out, its the Palm Trees burning up like paper that spread the fire and they are only decoration.
@doreeneclose6295 well if they don't properly manage the trees in areas like this it will keep happening. Unless it was arsen the fire was started from power lines running through tree branches. They should probably be cutting all the trees down that are close enough to the power lines to catch fire.

No water and the fire department was defunded. Mayor is in Africa on vacation. Said it a million times….voting has consequences. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
Very sad I would also like to add that for the past 10 yrs if not more I have been r3ading about fires in California and yet they always run put of something and don't know how to deal with it. It's a very fire prone area but resources run dry????? Great governing!
There is literally nothing more the government can do if the taxpayers refuse to pay for it. Look around your own town. Can it withstand a firestorm pushed by 80mph winds - in January?
@@jasminelindros8923 Do your research on LA policy about fire. If wild fires are very common in California then they should have been more prepared for a scenario like that. A good comparison is Florida and hurricanes, every year there are hurricanes but they always rebuild and are prepared for the next one. After 2020 and 2022 California should have learnt.
That’s why we don’t tear our land when constructing a building, now mother nature pays back!, all of the innocent animals😢😢😢 omg. AMERICANS… .? Please stop tearing your land just to make your city align and beautiful to look at! Stop it! it’s just the beggining!
Once again Anderson has proved he's got a pair of brass ones, going down there in a hazmat suit to still get the story. And those palmtrees are probably canary palms, not native to LA. They were brought in decades ago to give the city a certain look of being an oasis in the desert. WOOOOW big CSI Miami fan!!! Hope Proctor and her community are able to come together.

No water and the fire department was defunded. Mayor is in Africa on vacation. Said it a million times….voting has consequences. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
Now feel the Pain.. America is testing thier own medicine..
Amen to rain now and lots of it in Jesus name.
Why is Jesus taking so long? You'd be better pissing on the fire than waiting for the man in the sky. He's useless.
Jesus is the son of god fun fact
@@lamarwayland6494 Wonder why he just had the one kid?
@@ethanblackhurst8593 he saw how that turned out and thought, "no more".
Love and prayers from Vancouver BC Canada
Very sad
I would also like to add that for the past 10 yrs if not more I have been r3ading about fires in California and yet they always run put of something and don't know how to deal with it. It's a very fire prone area but resources run dry????? Great governing!
There is literally nothing more the government can do if the taxpayers refuse to pay for it. Look around your own town. Can it withstand a firestorm pushed by 80mph winds - in January?
LA voted for what they get
THERE HAVE NEVER BEEN HIGH WINDS LIKE TBESE AND NEVER SUCH LOW RAINFALL.
@medievalcatguy6776 Really? LA voted for 80mph late-fall Santa Ana winds in January? Well, that wasn't a very good idea, was it?
@@jasminelindros8923 Do your research on LA policy about fire. If wild fires are very common in California then they should have been more prepared for a scenario like that. A good comparison is Florida and hurricanes, every year there are hurricanes but they always rebuild and are prepared for the next one. After 2020 and 2022 California should have learnt.
We pray for them . 🙏
Hows that going? Where is your God?
dang put your mask on
But the straps hurt my ears.🤕
But they can now roast their smelt fish they saved.
That’s why we don’t tear our land when constructing a building, now mother nature pays back!, all of the innocent animals😢😢😢 omg. AMERICANS… .? Please stop tearing your land just to make your city align and beautiful to look at! Stop it! it’s just the beggining!
100% preventable
Poor leadership
Soo stupid
Sad, prayers for all.
Except for MAGA - they love it!
Americans need to learn how to build houses from stone like the europeans do, all damage could be avoided.
Stone breaks during earthquakes
Please inform yourself before making these nonsense statements.
A burned out stone structure, is still a burned out stone structure. Unless of course all of the furniture and belongings are made of concrete.
Are you kidding me ???? Building the houses the way they do is a big biz,of course nothing will be changed .
They have earthquakes in California
Please put your mask on, your lungs need to be protected. Stay safe
It’s almost like people are building where they probably shouldn’t be building
At least not building with the materials and precautions that are needed
100% preventable
Poor leadership let these people down
My old neighborhood
Once again Anderson has proved he's got a pair of brass ones, going down there in a hazmat suit to still get the story. And those palmtrees are probably canary palms, not native to LA. They were brought in decades ago to give the city a certain look of being an oasis in the desert.
WOOOOW big CSI Miami fan!!! Hope Proctor and her community are able to come together. This is not a time to fight and argue, its a time to offer each other a shoulder. I wish everyone in LA peace tonight.
Charities need hands as much as they need funds, VOLUNTEER.
I will never understand why we don't build with the best, safest building materials from the day. They exist.
It's all about strong regulations. Without them, developers will always take the low cost route.
Plenty of fire resistant materials, including stucco. 🤷
They announced 5 deaths from Eaton fire in the press conference. 😢😢😢😢😢
Pray for California
thousands of years ago it took literal volcanoes to destroy cities, now in the present as an advanced civilization where we build everything out of wood we are losing thousands of homes and acres of wild land.
100% preventable
😢 this is so heartbreaking.
Anderson is one of the best to ever do it, I just wish he would put on a mask dude we love you so much.
Putting your health in danger for this
CNN already burnt itself want to play hero to save CNN
