Prayers up.

This is truly heartbreaking.

Worst part is there’s no firebreak around a heavy wooded town, north of there, in Magalia, large stands of pines have been killed by bark beetles in that town, and they only recently started removing trees, on average 1 a week.

It is like these towns were soaked in gasoline, just waiting for some spark to come along and destroy them. (of course, the fault here is the spark, not countless city councils who have made it nearly impossible to remove these deadly sources of fuel, even if they are surrounding homes...)

Prayers are all many families have left, and I dread what authorities will find when they check several lines of cars which burned up on the road in the midst of the fire, as I expect not everyone made it out of danger.
