The smoke is back. About 100 miles south, in California, is the worst fire ever in that state. An entire town of 27,000 population, named Paradise, has burned down. There has been another, smaller fire in Malibu, southern California.

Statistics for the N. California fire (w/ updates):

11/19/2018...
79 dead, nearly all in the Paradise fire
699+ still missing
9,700 homes burned down
13,000 total structures

Thousands of residents had to literally run for their lives and the majority of those killed were over 60 years old. That fire is moving toward Chico, a city of 90,000. Mass evacuations. Everyone is in shock about this sudden flare-up of fires and the horrifying death toll.

Thank you, Keith.I am almost certain it will. My son and I both know people who lived in that town, all of them elderly, and we can't imagine how they could have gotten out on their own. There was, at most, a 10 minute warning to get out.

Shocking, the worst one yet! It doesn't seem there will be an end to "fire season" until it starts to snow.

Yes, and the nasty man in D.C. went on TV to rail against the state of California for causing these fires - 75% of which have been on federally owned and managed land! He is too stupid to know this, though.

I think the last number I heard was about 5,000. I tried to look for a number, but could not find one in all of the news reports I read. Thousands more are working in search & rescue, animal rescue teams, medical service and jobs such as driving water tankers and piloting planes.
