California Wildfire | Cal Fire says the Park Fire is over 178,000 acres

[@MH_6160]

The size is not as stunning as the fact that this fire had nothing to do with PG&E for once.

[@sarahrose4126]

Exactly. They've already downed at least 134 homes. This time the well paid attorneys can't go after PG and E. People are losing everything this time around , but now they can't look forward to a hefty payout from PG and E. This is going to get interesting.

[@PeteDyer-o9e]

Thank you firefighters

[@ryanlewis8465]

It's at 307,000 acres now and is now the record for CA. The precious record was 200k which took over 2 weeks time. This is only day 3

[@CountryLivingOnTheFarm]

I think the left (west) and right (east) flanks of the fire are contained. The west flank being the one near Chico and right flank being the one near Paradise. I’d say about 50 percent of the fire is contained except for the top (north) head of the fire and NE east corner of the fire. Been monitoring it since it began and haven’t noticed growth west side (Chico) or east side (paradise) so this means they have those two sides under control. 😊 Good job to all first responders!!

[@norcalbasshack]

Don't kid yourself, they have absolutely zero containment as it absolutely rages and there at the mercy of extremely mercy of unfavorable weather. It's jumped up to over 300k acres now, grown over 100k in the last 24 hours

[@kwillow12]

Very good on-the-spot reporting. Well done . . . Devon?

[@2dronetek2]

That's crazy how the house burned down but the trees around it are still green and alive. I would think everything would be charred.

[@asifallintonothingne]

There's a podcast called "Built to Burn" By 99 Percent Invisible that breaks down modern home architecture and how basically modern homes are not built with fires in mind AT ALL. (Even in fire-prone areas). Plus trees in areas like that have evolved to be pretty tough with fires.

[@crazyhawaiian5266]

Trees have moisture in them, compared to the outside of your house

[@andrewburke5815]

most of the trees were burned. there were only patches of branches with any green.

[@garicrewsen1128]

Thank you for your continued coverage! 🍻

[@donjuan6646]

This should never had happened if the guy served his 20 year term.

[@serenitygilles7064]

YES EXACTLY!!!!!

[@meredithslack6895]

Great reporting and visuals thank you

[@lew381]

Too good. Contrived to showcase it

[@insanity6829]

Praying for those losing their homes, our beautiful animals and our GREAT FIREMEN

[@armidaloya]

Are any roads closed?

[@wetshlovesusa2898]

This happens often… It’s Summer, it’s the CA state neglect to clean up. It’s Summer!! Duh!

[@donmoore7785]

Caused by arson, not failure to clean up

[@serenitygilles7064]

All our fires this year has been criminals

[@andrewburke5815]

its not really the states fault. its the fact that so many people have built homes in these areas and now the state cannot do the prescribed burns necessary to prevent fires this size. Most of the houses are like the one in this video dont do the necessary vegetation removal to keep their home safer from these fires. there should be no trees or large brush within 100 feet. Look at all the trees around that house.

[@armidaloya]

They’re getting the land ready for 15 min cities.

[@ranchobrien6235]

Men I live 3 blocks from coffee park it was crazy 2017 still messing with my head

[@KarlDahlquist]

climate change affected the audio levels

[@blockraven22]

I feel so bad for the firefighters, as the Thompson fire happened only a few weeks ago

[@catythatzall4now]

Wow that’s quite a distance - skipped over a 600 acre clear cut Do people even understand how the weather used to work at all ? Wow !

[@RexRoberts-hk3wj]

Arson 🔥

[@GoodVibes1997]

What's the carbon emissions on that? I hope CA is paying their carbon offsets on that.

[@jamesharris5284]

Tell it to the homeless

[@dana44ism]

THE GOVERNMENT NEEDS TO CLEAR CUT AND THEY DON'T!

[@jamesharris5284]

Tell that to the homeless .

[@Redpawdave]

Read on wise one... the fire JUMPED a 600 acre clearing from a past fire

[@darellsimons2687]

Lets help donate ❤

[@catythatzall4now]

Wow that’s quite a distance - skipped over a 600 acre clear cut - Ouch This pains me to see - I might say this will be the worst fire ever

[@iancarlson-w8m]

Live! From the abhorently recorded tunnel of audio ineptitude....

[@IAmWithinEverything]

Thunder clouds..from heat.

[@hopefaith3362]

Oprah needs a new mansion

[@SabastianCaine]

Stop Polluting the air with your wildfires california!

[@strangewayfaringstranger]

Stop polluting with your stupidity.

[@donmoore7785]

The fire was caused by arson

[@SabastianCaine]

​@@donmoore7785 if califorina had a proper justice system and strong leadership then that would be controlled too!

[@serenitygilles7064]

ITs the crackheads here because our gov. won't keep them in jail!

[@crazyhawaiian5266]

Cal fire will eventually get their hand on it, or they'll hand it off to the forest service blame them 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@Jill-wb7ud]

We knew who were the fire bugs were way back leif errikson days . We know who you are.

[@diannadima7082]

We the people are not meant to build and seek home in the forest. Our forests were given to us for enjoyment. Wake up America protect our planet our Democracy and our Planet.

[@thekickingwolf5115]

Yeah! Vote for Donald Trump! MAGA 2024!!! 🫡🇺🇸🇺🇸 🇺🇸

[@Redpawdave]

Nope! Nope! Nope! What we don't manage is lost. Maitained home sites STOP these fires.

[@ChrissMott]

[@user-xm8rf6ik7b]

This fire is terrible but why do we constantly have to use words like “ dynamic “ constantly to explain things . Are they taking speech patterns from the Biden campaign?

[@strangewayfaringstranger]

Oh yeah the town of Paradise, the one where Donald Chump said the wrong name of the town after it burned down and how they need to rake the forests.

[@thekickingwolf5115]

You got a serious case of TDS! 🤣 get some help
