Live updates: Brush fire burns in Pacific Palisades as Santa Ana winds blast Southern California - Live video at link

[lol cow supreme]

Don't worry. I have word that the Ukraine will be sending aid to help California fight these fires and provide assistance to the fine California peoples. The rest of Europe, the UN and NATO are all sending assistance and funding as well.

I've gone out to some of the spots a couple times. It really does feel genuinely cursed, there's absolutely no sound of any animal or insect for miles in these spots.

Animals know to get the fuck away from a fire.

Also Asmongold needs to burn, not in Hell, but in real life, until he dies, and then he can go burn in Hell, too.

ACCORDING TO FOX NEWS 5 LOOTERS HAVE NOW BEEN ARRESTED

But that's racist!

 

[RodgerDodger]

So right now it's just forest fires boosted by high wind speeds engulfing neighborhoods in their path. But if the fire spreads into the city proper could just all of the flammable materials from inside the city give it enough energy to spread on it's own or will it snuff it's self out as there will be no more wood mass to burn?

No this is already much deeper into urban and suburban areas than we have really seen in living memory. Driven by winds that were hitting between 40 mph and 80 mph. It's jumping highways pretty easily. There were at least 1000 buildings destroyed as of mid afternoon. And it's entirely at the mercy of the winds. They are predicting another hit of Santa Anna extreme winds for Friday. Right now this is probably in the same ballpark as a Cat 4 or 5 hitting Florida or New Orleans, in terms of destructive power. And the problem is the more unstable things get, the greater the chances of more individual fires. I'm guessing, given the 1.5 million without power estimate that they just cut the power due to all the damaged lines, to prevent further fires?

And talking about the fire gives it energy. That's why it's getting bigger. People keep giving it attention. Just ignore it and it will go out. Probably. Maybe.

You just have to swear at the fire and tell it to stop

No skin off my shoes toobz

 

[SamuraiHitler]

if BLM set fire to the city in a peaceful protest would anyone even be able to tell?

Not in California.

This really isnt true about Californians though. There isn't just an undercurrent of dislike. It really does come off as legit inter tribal Hatred. Many Americans don't even think of Californians as fellow countrymen. They view them as a hostile "other" that is the enemy.

Californian (urban) Genocide.

Well it would probably take incredible infrastructure building to hook up the areas under threat, some over a thousand feet above sea level, to a system that covers the whole of LA County. I’m just guessing.

EPA would be on your ass for killing a bunch of endanger plants, and most of the equipment would be written off from corrosion.
Also, firefighting uses generally centrifugal pumps, the implellers are going to wear out real fast and then it has to be rebuilt or scrapped. That shit's expensive.

Serious question: how likely are we looking at a (or multiple) fire(s) that spreads out of LA county and into the neighbouring ones?

 

[Clotso Coof]

Before and after of the Pasadena Jewish Temple which was burnt down in the fires.

View attachment 6835910

Zillow shows the neighborhood around that temple is densely-packed small 2 and 3 bedroom houses, most in the 1.2 million to 2 million dollar range. The lower end is actually considered humble middle-class housing in Los Angeles.

Those are the good family people left in LA, and now they're homeless because of the complete ineptitude of their elected leaders and city workers. Sad, but that's what happens when 80 percent of you vote lefty for decades.

 

[Darkholme's Dungeon]

HA omg you are so wrong.
Remwmber, Montana tends to be this idealized place for the elite to have homes. Almost all rich people, including actors, buy up the land and have for decades. So much so we had to limit how often and how much territory we sold to out of staters because they unironically caused one of the worst fire disasters in montanan history by not letting hunters on their land and having nobody clean up their shit. (Most hunters will freely clean up brush and leaves, leaving it cleaner than when they came as a thankyou) and then there's the plants that die from getting stripped of all their leaves from too many deer taking refuge.
Trust me, we hate them more than you can comprehend. Our lands are our pride and we get SO pissy when someone doesn't respect it.

Didn't some dumbass on an ATV go and fuck with the salmon spawning grounds last year as well?

Not very. Once the winds die down, they can launch a full air campaign and the fires won't be as intense. But they will chew up plenty of real estate until then.

Well, considering containment is zero and everyone in LA is a fucking retard - Probably high.

 

[WelperHelper99]

You, like, steal it. Just when nobody's looking, or even if anyone is, you just fucking STEAL IT.

Do you understand junkies? They will steal ANYTHING.

Real talk, a fire hydrant is heavy, but it's not bank vault heavy. Get a moving dolly, or a shopping cart if you're homeless I guess and hoist it in there.

Will this help radicalize Ana Kasparian even more? I hope my Queen is safe. Safe and browsing the Rikeita thread.

Actual Justice Warrior,

Is this you? We all know you have an Ana fetish.

 

[CornBogFitz]

Well…well…well…

 

[Flaming_Barghast]

Burn zones are often beautiful and revitalized nature areas full of life, including rare fungal bloom events and lasting clearance of pests like bore beetles.

Usually yes, but like I said, some of these burned so hot that seeds didn't even survive. Imagine a place that burned in the 80s that in 2025 doesn't have grass still, there are actual patches like that!

 

[Sarah Connor]

Not to PL too much but posting from a neighbourhood in NoHo. I'm originally from Canada and up around my parts we get some pretty awful wind during hurricane season (I'm an East-Coaster), but holy hell the wind was crazy yesterday. I took a nap and woke up with the power completely gone, but thankfully it came back this morning.

I just hope we haven't lost too many In-N-Outs from the blaze.

Legit, have they considered praying at this point? Maybe the mayor once she gets back from Ghana can don sackcloth, cover herself in ashes and do a penitent procession.

Nah, who am I kidding. That would require her taking responsibility!

Import millions from the third-world, and allow massive organized and unorganized crime. In both government and business.

@LaxerBRO
implying you're to good to fuck Ana?
