This is from the wildfire in Canada.
Winds changed and the fire grew very rapidly.
There's only one road.

Been through Katrina.
Never a wildfire on that order of magnitude.
I can see how the ptsd from the wildfire might be worse.

An unusually intense May wildfire roared into Fort McMurray, Alberta, Canada, on Tuesday, forcing the largest wildfire evacuation in province history. The flames rode the back of hot, windy weather that will continue through Wednesday and could pick up again this weekend.
The wildfire is the latest in a lengthening lineage of early wildfires in the northern reaches of the globe that are indicative of a changing climate. As the planet continues to warm, these types of fires will likely only become more common and intense as spring snowpack disappears and temperatures warm.
“This (fire) is consistent with what we expect from human-caused climate change affecting our fire regime,” Mike Flannigan, a wildfire researcher at the University of Alberta, said.

It is human nature to wait until the last minute to leave.

Lasciate ogni sperazza.
Why would that white vehicle drive into it? Let it go.

Would be bad fricking arse to drive through that. I'd get my wife to drive and I'd be on the hood playing an electric guitar/flame thrower like that dude in Mad Max

Damn, I would be scared that somehow my gas tank would go boom.

I don't think it is that bad. Roads can't catch on fire so the only stuff burning would be on your sides.

Well I guess you wouldn't have to worry about looters.

Damn, looks like middle earth. My aunt and uncle live in Santa Barbara, CA and the fire trucks parked in their driveway to try and extinguish the flames. They had burn holes on all their outdoor furniture from the embers. Was close as frick

That would suck so bad. Burning is way worse than drowning in my mind.

Looks like the truck has some truck nuts!
Posted on 5/6/16 at 12:04 pm to Pectus
I feel bad for the kids who will be permanently terrified of fire from then on.
