strongly believe that had forestry companies cleaned up the woods after hurricane Laura this fire wouldn’t be near as bad. Instead they said screw the woods and left all the down trees on the ground to rot. Anybody who has walked in the woods around Beauregard parish after the hurricane can tell you the amount of down trees and tree tops is staggering
It also appears fire lane guidelines were not enough to slow this thing down. As much as that area is logged there's no way this fire didnt jump a few fire lanes. Of. Course with the statement yesterday of embers flying 20 miles a 30 foot fire lane is nothing.
Honestly as dry as it is I'm not sure controlled burns wouldve done much either.
Its nice to apply blame but the treetops are also going off like matches.
