- Scores of wildfires across the United States and Canada have scorched swaths of land in California, Oregon, Idaho, Alaska, Alberta and beyond, forcing evacuations and road closures, as well as destroying and threatening structures. Air quality advisories and alerts have been issued in some affected areas.
The Park Fire in Butte County, California, near the city of Chico has seared 257 square miles (666 square kilometers) and was considered completely uncontained Friday.
Evacuations were ordered in Butte and Tehama counties. About 4,000 residents in unincorporated areas of Butte County and 400 residents of Chico were ordered to evacuate, Butte County Sheriff Kory Honea said late Thursday. Two minor injures were reported, more than 130 structures were destroyed and about 4,200 were threatened.
Residents who evacuated from the communities of Cohasset, Forest Ranch and Magalia were staying at the Red Cross shelter at the Neighborhood Church of Chico. Many residents with pets sleeping in their cars in the parking lot because animals weren't permitted inside the shelter.
Brian Bowles, 61, said he heard about the fire on the news shortly after waking up and rushed to pack up his car and get his dog Diamon ready to evacuate.
“Right about the time I go out the door, I got two city PD officers at the door telling me I needed to get out,” Bowles said outside Red Cross shelter at the Neighborhood Church of Chico, where he was staying in his car. He said the shelter doesn’t allow animals.
"I heard the neighbor across the street from me lost his house, and, I only live in an old doublewide mobile. Whether it's still standing or not, I got no idea," Bowles said.
A California man arrested Thursday was accused of sparking the state’s largest wildfire of the year by pushing a burning car into a gully.
The blaze was burning northwest of Paradise, the community devastated by the Camp Fire in 2018 that killed 85 people and destroyed thousands of homes.
As of Friday, there were 96 large active fires in the U.S. that have engulfed 2,274 square miles (5,890 square kilometers), most of them in Oregon, followed by California and Arizona, according to the National Interagency Fire Center.
More than 1,500 square miles (4,000 square kilometers) have burned overall so far this summer in the U.S. Pacific Northwest. In Canada, more than 3,700 fires have charred more than 8,000 square miles (22,800 square kilometers) so far this year, according to the government’s latest National Wildland Fire Situation Report, issued Wednesday.
Fuels and fire behavior advisories are in place for southwest Oregon, the region east of the Cascades in Oregon and Washington, Nevada, southern Idaho, Utah and California.
Arsonists should be charged with attempted murder.
A lot of fires are started by Cal firefighters
@@bassmaster135790666 A lot of wildfires are started by climate activists.
It WASN'T started by a burning car. What, did the car just burst into flame? It was started by a SO who SET HIS MOM'S CAR ON FIRE.
He then shoved the car into a heavily-forested ravine, but apparently blaming a certain type of dude is not allowed.
@@ginmar8134 wtf make pedophiles afraid again
@@ginmar8134 jddelay president 2024
causes have causes 🤯
What's an SO ? U aso
@ginmar8134 What certain type of dude? You’re like a democrat speaking in gibberish
Oh Lord please help these poor people and your precious animals. Protect them from harm, please put out this fire Lord. 😢😢
Absolutely I agree, please oh Heavenly Father God let it rain and wet everything down to stop this evil fire. Lord God Almighty please help these poor people and their little family members, their little cats and dogs and other pets that people have ❤
A purposefully set burning car!
Right like gtfo🙄a burning car really
😂😂 right.. and they want us to believe it got out of hand by a car😂😂
Conspiracy nuts
@@brandonhanson9358 lmfao!! but russia trump collusion is not conspiracy nuts? 😂😂😂😂
@@brandonhanson9358 boohoo it just sounds funky but whatever happened was tragic. Period
Prayers for my beloved California 😢 🙏 please please please try to stay safe 💗
They need to arrest the SOB and put his behind under the jail.
As long as the ones who started it were mostly peaceful, this too can be forgiven...
Every year after the Cali government outlawed control burning, they have been dealing with this issue.
What are you talking about? We have controlled burns here. Are you a bot or just like making stuff up?
Look up; Illegal migrants living in national parks.
@@Wasthere73California has horribly inadequate forest management. It’s a joke.
More than anything else the government is responsible for this problem. Failure to manage the forest to prevent out of control fires
@@Wasthere73in the past California wasn't the best with controlled burns. A ton of fuel has accumulated over the years. That's probably what he's referencing. California has been doing better with controlled burns lately to try and clean it up.
this is a huge tragedy 😒
12 dogs, wtf
13, with her girlfriends's😂
Does it count as 12 when they're so small?
Lol
@CatDaddyGuitar lol
Its also illegal in California to have that many dogs
I do love that they all included their animals.
were they just supposed to leave them? dumbass lol
Forest management would do wonders for California. Creating Fire breaks and fire roads, logging, etc. It would make these fires easier to control.
Gov Brown (D) passed a law stopping deforestation, stating it was "BAD for the natural growth of the forests". He was told (warned) that this would, in the future create fires the "Likes of which we had never see". So here we are.
Like the days long ago when I was a child, nearly 50 years ago.
There are fire breaks and fire roads. I've looked at them all my life. The government no longer funds forest management. That's the problem.
Newsom won’t allow that when he can blame climate change and say it your fault
Ban geoengineering.
As many fires as California has, I'm surprised it can still sustain life.
Its a forest fire jot a nuclear explosion
Do you vote Democrat? Cali used to maintain their forests.
They really need to bring logging companies back into California to log in strips to prevent the spread of wildfires. Since Bill Clinton and the Democrats greatly reduced logging in California to protect the spotted owl, there has been more wildfires there than ever.
Forest fires is a natural thing. They have been going on for as long as there were forests. The forests grow back. Some areas were lucky to have the ability to let trees grow very large over time without catastrophic fires.
@@user-tm4pz3we6w Exactly
This feels familiar..
Newsom is to blame
The blame game . That’s all you have .? Talking points . “ think but…… nothing Hapens…..”
He is to blame. His pony, the gel man, did exactly
When you've let your poor forestry practices and lazy housekeeping get so out of hand that it can be sparked off this easy? Criminal negligence.
Yeah they should be raking the forests, that would stop the fires.
From what it sounds some guy intentionally lit his mom car on fire and pushed it into a ravine. With the heat wave we are having everything is dry. So that has nothing to do with forest management.
@@DoxieMomCarrie they should be maintaining fire breaks, doing controlled burns, and yes, preventative cleanup. Otherwise it burns every few years. Since forever.
gavin is def a criminal
@@augustwestmusic yes, they Used to use prisoners to do cleanup. Otherwise it burns every few years, that's how most of that ecosystem evolved.
I’m so glad they got their beloved dogs and families out, what a horrible thing to happen 😢 the people interviewed seem like very nice people
Direct
Energy
Weapons
Wake up sheeple
You nailed it.
I’m so glad these people protected their precious animals!
too many animals
Best wishes for the displaced people and pets.
Fire season is going to be very intense.
It’s time to ban cars.
Meanwhile, in unrelated news, California continues to reduce land management.
Average day for California
These poor people will never recover
Newsom`s fault!
Every year same thing, you'd think Californians would figure it out.. their state burns up and they think it's a natural thing not man made...😂
What about Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Canada, and Hawaii? The west has hot, dry weather in the summer just like the south has flooding and the Midwest has tornadoes....
This is why they need to make controlled burning legal again. I went to a grass land in Texas where they do prescribed burns to keep vegetation down, because everything is overgrown, you see the same things in California overgrowth, and fires are a natural thing but the overgrowth makes it worse.
Pray for their safety
God help you all 🙏🏼
My daughter in laws cousin lives in Chico I pray their ok
I'm from California. It's like black ops 2 over here.
ohhhh defiantly more insurers are gonna flee CA.
State farm already started. Those stolen hellcats and wildfires have put them in the negative. They didn't even make profit last year. That's terrible.
Amazing how that hole of a state even has anything to burn
Campfire fire took the life of a friends grandmother and the grand kids. So sad.
“Caused by a gas stove” will be the next headline
Nah hit bet the repubtards will say it was electric 😂 but really it’s some idiot lighting as gas car on fire
Homeowners insurance in CA gonna get more expensive than FL
1:02 firefighter having issues getting through that tiny fence? the fuh
Rogers Waters, help them!!
You are so attentive to these events!!
DEW season in full affect
when blue stated priorities forest mitigation at the bottom, this will continue to happen on this scale... it truly sad Americans have been de- prioritized as far as basic services like forest service projects!
Time to ban cars i guess. 🙄
Wildfire accident became so common now especially in past five years as of having smoke alarm at home. Something/ someone behind this accident, setting up fire to turn down nature and sell it to industrialist, just pretending to be go green and protect wild life. Enough damage is done already and we are facing domino effect Both Blue and Red never tried to pay any attention neither tried to find the root cause and either tried prevent it. Its so heartbreaking.
was it an electric car?
That woman who cares only about her dogs, true American!
You mean they're not blaming it on the homeless
It's not their fault this time....I don't think unless the guy who started it was
DEW Again??
There is almost no natural fire
Praying
Bro, I just woke up (I know YT 5 min after waking up isn't healthy) and I live in CA, I was about to panic thinking one of the local wildfires went out of control agian.
Orher side of the state apparently.
Hope people stay safe an d CalFire can tackle this fire season
Can you describe the person who started the fire???
Wildfire caused by man who set car on fire. Fixed it.
The poor wildlife. 😢
Californians have more love for animals than homeless people on rhe street. God have mercy on their souls.
Greedy real-estate jerks intentionally lit the fire for commercial land project.
All my admiration to the US Forrest Service. ❤
Dosnt this happen every year?
recently yes
yeah. but this one is VERY worrying due to how extremely fast its spreading. Already 7th largest ever in California, in only 3 days.
Guess what folks, it will repeat for the next century....get used to it.
Love to see the hippie generation all grown up and living in cali out in nature away from society. They all seem so chill and love animals. Blessings for them. ❤
what kind of car ? and how did the fire start in that vehicle ? pleasee more info
an arsonist lit a 2007 Toyota Yaris on fire and pushed it into a 60 foot deep gulley, sparking the Park fire.
Here we go
They can claim fleeing because of fires but i think its just getting away from california politicians which is worse then any wildfire i have ever seen .
Also I would NEVER move to California!
12 dogs!
If wildfires keep occurring in a certain area every year, why would you continue to live there?
Their Californians. Why do they still live in California period?
What are your thoughts on people who live in the south and east coast in hurricane territory, or people in the middle of the country who live tornado territory?
Also, what a bizarrely ignorant statement to make in regards to the life fulfillment and career prospects of living in an area, relative to its likelihood of being struck by disaster. Literally everywhere on planet Earth is susceptible to some kind of hardship at the hands of climate
@@GoofballLOLseriously. Hey everyone, let’s all move to the same place so we’re safe
Where tf do you live that you have 0 natural disasters? Or in this case assholes causing problems?
Because it's spectacularly beautiful, everyone you know and love is near, and you've built a life there. You just hope and pray that you keep dodging the bullet. How about the guy who left New Orleans after Katrina, went to Houston, and got hit with a hurricane there just a short time later? If the target is on your back, you don't outrun it.
What can we do to help
Where is Di Caprio to help?
He is always worried about wildfires!!!
Dew
Burning car now huh
And newsome? I wonder if those firefighters are makin' $20.00 an hour?
I thought this was the town map
Let me get one of those puppies…
DEW
This fire was started by arson the title is incorrect
13 dogs in a car 😮
13 dogs???? WHAT???
I have seen over grow trees with ele line crisscrossing the road all the way up the mountain! It a death trap to go up the mountain! When the fire comes and its coming ur Traped ! I got out ! Good Luck But Be Lucky ❤
More weather refugees. Where will they all go? Ban geoengineering!
Getting a ton of smoke here in vegas. Not sure if its from this fire or what
They never did say what kind of Vehicle it was. Was it one of those Electric Vehicles that catch on fire, and is that the reason they did not say.......
Did you start eating your tinfoil hat?
it was a 2007 toyota yaris. an arsonist did it.
The wall
I just care about my couple bags filled with music equipment and my son's first haircut hair maybe a couple cute outfits I think I'm actually going to pack this morning just in case I'm about 25 miles outside of the fires path
Pack up your vehicle----including pets----now. A fire like this can close that 25-mile gap in minutes with strong winds. Pick comfortable clothes, medication, papers, extra shoes, sleeping bags, canned food. Pack all your underwear. Blankets, blow up mattress, pillows, though you can just stuff extra bedding into pillow cases. Do it now. Stay safe. Do you have a drone? Send it up now. Bring lots of water.
Don't wait. You might have to jump in at a moment's notice.
And check on your neighbors. Got any old folks around?
@@ginmar8134 thank you but it does seem like they're keeping it to the east of millville and they're trying their best as to protect reading and I do believe there's probably a fire hydrants all over the place over here they'll probably set those off before letting it get into the neighborhoods in Redding however I do cedar point I don't have all that but I have music equipment and my son's first haircut hair I think I'm going to let JD delay know the status of this Esso though and the person that so the fire I really hope he has to hold bubba's pockets now what the f*** was he covering up this is no better than the Nikki saelees husband thing he started a few fires and did not get arrested for that or for the battery on his wife or the fact that Nikki is missing Kelly is just letting all sorts of f****** get away with f*** s*** it's crazy
@@ginmar8134 and the fact that the fire starter is a f****** diaper sniffer that's disgusting
Doesn't the Mexican government or the cartel do this kind of thing when they want to divert themselves out of the spotlight
And they are in the spotlight right now
You just had to DIG REAL DEEP for that comment...🤦🏼♂️🤦♂️🤦🤦🏻♂️💩
You get what you vote for!
Interesting that it's along the path of t r ain to nowhere. God bless these people.
Im trying to find Sherry
What town was this?
Every time humans harm our planet, I feel real pain
Don't worry the planet harms us back.. Try not to be too sensitive though it really isn't as bad as they try to say it is...
So you’re saying Gomorrah is on fire again…😂😂
Home
Omg i use to live in chico
Ev cars go like dominoes in fires
Electric Car??
I hope the magnitude of this destruction is factored into the sentencing of the alleged arsonist who caused this.
They need to start sending these robots the supposedly have to fight these fires they don't need oxygen the can put out fires strategically and they can work with out rest.
Was that an electric car? They do that.
BINGO!
Another reddit mod setting the state on fire.
These are not chicoans. Not the best representation or interviews. Iam a Campfire survivor and North complex Evacuee/Berry Creek and 46 year resident of butte county and chicoan since 1976. pleqse redo this interview with others thst make since. Esoecially about the 15 dogs. Doesn't people edit
Mercy. Did you edit your comment to make it better...or worse?
Electric car?
it was a 2007 toyota yaris, not electric. an arsonist did it.
Just another reason no one wants to live there
13 dogs??
