My house burnt down July 5th. You have no idea what yr talking about.
I got caught once on a highway in the mountains near a fire. I had to travel 30 miles on this road. I was apparently the last one to get on the road before the state closed it because the winds changed. I know this because I was stopped more than once and asked what I was doing, in a bewildered, exasperated way each time.
So you have a clear idea what it can be like, the highway was cleared of the forest for about 200ft off each side. The entirety of the last 10 miles was fire trucks and helicopters and planes flying over having just dropped water.
Im hauling ass right, no ones on the road anyway so I book it up to 70 and get the fuck out of there, that much activity, besides the smoke and embers hitting my car and you just
don’t want to be there, y’know.
The last couple miles the wind had pushed the fire to the edge of the forest. It’s 3pm but the only light on me is from the fire. I have my headlights on. I’m looking over at the fire as the trucks start moving away, abandoning their positions and see 200ft tall Doug firs FUCKING EXPLODE
You have no idea what a forest fire is like. It’s worse than you can even imagine, trust me.
This shit the Russians are doing is a crime against humanity. One of MANY there are doing in Ukraine.
There is no forest fire, there is hardly anything left to burn there. This stuff is generally not deadly and all the terrible effects people mention are made up. Hence my comment. That a forest fire can be absolutely devastating is no question at all.
Have you ever even been close to a big fire?

This is what it looks like when it hits steel. The steel cools it down rapidly and it stops burning.
Here is a picture of ground that was hit. No burning through (into the ground) or anything. It just sits and burns.
This is what it looks like when trenches are hit.
