Southern California Fires

Submitted by ub on

While visiting family in Los Angeles, I noticed my daughters' neighborhoods were exceedingly dry and wondered when the rains would come. Now, that precipitation is needed more than ever.

Hundreds of thousands of Californian residents have already fled their homes since the increasing number of wildfires keep breaking out across the region. Multiple blazes popped up around Los Angeles, encroaching on the city. The smoke from these fires is making it increasingly difficult for folks to breathe.
