ABC7’s helicopter was pretty much the first on the scene during live broadcast and it literally went from a small patch to a massive fire in a matter of minutes on live tv. It was insane.
This is how 2020 started with the Australian wild fires
If you are in fire danger areas (yes LA but also anywhere wild fires are a threat, please download the app “Watch Duty”.
Its a free app (and website) that gets very fast updates on fires, evacuation maps, communications from fire departments. It can show wind direction as an overlay on the map and it can notify you of new fires in your area. Please share this with as many people as you know.
I’m in an area that is safe from fires right now, but we are surrounded by fires. I have been checking constantly which directions they are spreading but they are completely unpredictable.
What is starting all these fires down there?
Heartbreaking. So many people are losing everything. My heart goes out to the people and animals!
Hollywood Bowl and Walk Of Fame are now in danger. Stay safe everyone!
My brother lives in the Hollywood hills and he said there is a fire by his place. They gtf out thankfully.

This is live video news coverage with aerial views. Heartbreaking.
I heard anecdotally that insurance companies rescinded coverage For wildfires just last year. Â Does anybody have any idea how many people in the area are actually insured for this?
Friend of a friend just lost everything. They are safe but just got their child from daycare in time and got out of the area. I believe they they received confirmation their house is gone. Just can’t believe that. In a day or two everything you own and worked for, pictures, keepsakes, gone in the blink of an eye. In the scheme of things they are lucky but where do you even start after that.
Friendly reminder! It’s being reported that Karen Bass (Mayor of Los Angeles) cut the fire department funding by $17.6 million months before the wildfires.

Edit: this has also been confirmed by the LA Fire Chief.
Don’t be surprised if the Hollywood sign burns. This is perfect fire conditions and rugged area that’s hard to fight fires in.
Keep in mind that the sign historically was meant to be temporary and has been functionally replaced many times.
Raging wildfires in the West, massive snowstorms and cool fronts elsewhere.
God damn hell on earth.
This is Hollywood? The Hollywood Hills? West Hollywood?
You guys believe in climate change yet?!?!
Please evacuate now, don’t sleep and think you’re too fat from this fire. It’s better safe than sorry,
Rogan saying some obvious thing and acting like it’s this mind blowing wisdom nobody has ever heard of?!? Whaaaaat?!?
Pay attention in your science classes kids. You learn about things like fire and the wind and how they tend to wreck house together.
Starting to think some of these are probably arson.
This is insane. My thoughts and prayers are with everyone that has to deal with this. Please stay safe.
Why is this happening? Is this fire connected to the others?
So Florida has floods and California has fires. Insurance companies are leaving. Seems like Midwest is about to get more populated.
Next time I complain about hurricanes I must remember fire.
Thankfully it looks contained now
The Santa Ana winds are not unusual even in winter. It’s like tsunamis in Japan, by living there you acknowledge the risk. The fires are supposed to happen, the homes aren’t supposed to be in the wayÂ
As a non-religious person…
God is looking down on us right now saying “bro, it’s winter. How the fuck are y’all managing to do this?!”
Lahaina but in California?
Not sure which fire, but this website shows the hot spots and things.
