The Station Fire that has been ravaging an area just north of Los Angeles doubled in size during the last two days of August. Two firefighters have been killed and 18 houses destroyed. The Station Fire now covers more than 85,000 acres.
NASA’s Terra satellite took images of the Station Fire from space. These images show the hot spots where the fire is most intense, and the massive amounts of smoke can be seen drifting to the northeast.
sad…
more than 18 housees were destroyed
I live close enogh to the fire where theres smoke all around my house and the Station Fire has now burned more than 145,000 acers.
it got so close to my house that i had to evacuate at 2 AM.
That’s both amazing and sad. How could a fire get so big?
I feel sorry for the people that lost their homes and for the firefighters’ families. I’m glad that my dad wasn’t there becuase he is a firefighter!
