NBC – Many residents in Malibu woke up to the news that a wildfire in their neighborhood had grown overnight.
The Franklin Fire, which had started Monday at around 11 p.m., has now grown to well over 2,000 acres.
About 18,000 residents live in the area affected by the fire, according to officials.
Sheriff’s deputies went door to door, waking up residents and letting them know they had to evacuate. more
I will be interested to see how much those affected get from the Federal Government, and how fast they get it.
I can’t imagine how awful that is.
I’ll still hurricanes over wildfires, thank you, even after 2024.
Every year. this happens every year. It starts in the endless fingers of canyons. The Santa Anas show up, and now you have yourself a blow torch. The fuel is Manzanita and Scrub Oak. The mud slides will quickly follow due to soil erosion because the scrub brush is gone. You’d think somebody would come up with something else to plant in those canyons. They could aerially seed it right after the fires.
Has Oprah been spotted in the area?
“Has Oprah been spotted in the area?”
She’s in charge of burning down entire towns in Maui.
I advise the Mal-libbers to jump into the Pacific Ocean and swim north or south till they reach an island, any island.
Let Babula Streisand lead the way.
Just this weekend I heard that stupid assed Governor Inslee (D-WA) blaming the smoke from the wildfires in Canada on Global Warming, so drastic measures are needed.
If some jerk starts a fire how is that Global Warming?
How can an entire state elect such stupidness?
