How do two fires start simultaneously; one on each of two islands: and a second on one island starting AFTER the one down wind of it?

[@philippeDC-hl7gm]

same as the ones in canada and austraila all at once

[@MrSneaksful]

downed powerlines? Winds had gusts up to 80+mph.

@@MrSneaksful There is that.

[@deidrabrey4043]

@@MrSneaksful Power lines and stations can spark fires for sure. But so many in multiple locations? I havent heard of that.

[@Dr.Tinkerpaw]

Looks like fire on the big island too.

[@beverlyd3464]

Both at the same time, too.

[@deidrabrey4043]

Show me these fires in time lapse satellite views, start to finish. Somebody please. I have to see how this happens.

[@357smallblock]

Literally just did

[@deidrabrey4043]

@@357smallblock Not here I didnt. This video shows the fires already in progress at the beginning.

Wild fires? I think not. Just like Canadas “wild” fires. What really happened here? A protest gone horribly wrong?
