Extreme wind-driven fire is raging in Oregon, California, and Washington. The fire has been burning for weeks since it was sparked by lightning. The fire is ongoing for 3 weeks burning millions of acres of land. More than 50 thousand people had evacuated their houses in Oregon.
In California, where fires since last month have charred over 3.2 million acres and destroyed about 4,000 structures, the number of dead reached 22 on Saturday.
Clouds of ash and smoke spread across that region that is linked to serious health problems and the effect doesn’t necessarily go away when the skies are clear.
The pandemic had made life difficult over the US and the fire added pile to it. People are getting more and more scared where many fatalities might occur when people aren’t informed at the correct time.
