This is my hometown . . .
Here’s a link to a video of the Breezy fire:

And here’s a link to another fire further east on the beach near 116th

In between these two fires is another at approximately 130th ... about 8 houses, restaurant and maybe the church.
The boardwalk is ripped apart ... parts of it are blocking entrance to my brother’s house.
I am so sorry to hear that... It must be difficult to watch. I can’t imagine it.
Thank you for the links, I am sure others will want to see this coverage when everyone starts waking up. I imagine all of the news that will be coming out today is going to be worse than some expected, and definitely hard to see for so many...
Prayers are being said for your brother and all that may still be in harm’s way in the aftermath - and for all of those faced with the task of rebuilding afterwards.
