In the Eastern and Southern Coast it is mostly hurricane strikes them, the Midlands & Central States it's tornadoes! good thing that we dont have it here in the Western Coast; no hurricanes,floods,tornadoes but the natural disaster that strikes this part of america is the wild fire and now we have one and worst than 2003 fire storm.
5:30am when the fire started in Malibu in Los Angeles, it was said that a power line in that area was tipped over by the strong Sta. Anna wind yesterday morning that now spreads out and causes the WILDFIRE in that area burning acres of land and hundreds of houses including the castle that was built in 1978 that resembles the 13th century castle that is in the estate for $17m. was totally burned down to ashes and the fire in that area are still raging!
Another one of the fire also started yesterday here in my area in San Diego, it started in the inland east area of Witch Creek yesterday and now the raging fire spreads out having a multiple fires in different places in the whole San Diego County. The strong and gusty wind makes it more difficult for the fire fighters and esp. the hellicopters to contain the fire that is widely spread, that this only means that more amber...more fire! 100,000 acres were destroyed, almost a thousand of homes were burned, hundreds of people were injured including fire fighters and 1 dead was reported just this morning and it is not over yet. now alot of people are in the evacuation area including their animals. the classes was suspended until further notice and except freeway 5, all other freeways are closed down. now having a wildfire in 8 different part of san diego made it so hot and very difficult in breathing thats why people were told to wear mask esp. with those who has an asthma and for the kids too. and lucky for us who are in the coast area we're still safe but we can smell the fire from here and still we are not even sure that we are totally safe from the Fire Storm in our area because the Sta. Anna wind is blowing towards us and the meteorologist says that this wind will continue till the next couple of days so who knows it might spread here but hopefully not! gotta watch now for more news and updates about this nature outrage!
