USPS mailman delivers mail to neighborhood destroyed in Santa Rosa fires: Drone video

He made the same round a couple of weeks ago.

He seemed to skip a lot of houses.

No mailbox = no mail.

Well that's the saddest video I'm seen in a really long time.

Out here now working the aftermath...it's the most devastating thing I've ever seen.

It rivals Katrina easily. To sit and look at what used to a subdivision and all that's left are brick chimneys for miles. And to hear the stories.....every homeowner I've spoken with talks about the fire bombs coming out of the sky raining down on their property, just waiting on that ONE that hits the roof and takes the house....scary stuff

So what's up with these home's foundations? They look to be steel framed. Almost like a mobile home or a frame for a vehicle. I wonder if its for earthquakes allowing for the earth to move beneath the house.

Possibly. I was wondering the same thing.

I grew up in the Bay Area in a 50's house built on a trad. slab but with radiant heat in it. I know any little earthquake cause cracks to appear. I can just imagine all that copper tubing running through the slab after a good earthquake. Not Good.

Sad to see the 50's station wagon burned.

Looks like a 57 Nomad.

Amazing where you can see some houses across the street from the gutted ones appear to have no issues.

Terrible

It is a 57 Chevy Nomad. Not many left and another gone. Sad video.

That's sad man. I was just there last month. Spent a few days in Napa Valley then drove to Santa Rosa to hit Russian River Brewery.

Can you imagine living in a house that didn’t burn. It has to feel like being in a nightmare from Mad Max
