Large-scale wildfire in California, USA Nearly four times the area of Tokyo was destroyed by fire at 8:39 on September 8
The large-scale wildfire that continues in western California in the United States has caused the worst damage in history, with nearly four times the area of Tokyo being destroyed since the beginning of this year.
In California, there have been a series of large wildfires, and Governor Newsum issued a state of emergency all over the state last month.
According to the Associated Press, wildfires have occurred in about 900 locations since the 15th of last month, and most of them are caused by lightning strikes, and the damage is spreading due to severe heat waves and dryness.
Since entering this year, about 8,000 square kilometers, which is nearly four times as large as that in Tokyo, has been burned down, which is the worst ever forest fire damage in California.
In California, the severe heat continued, with the highest temperature recording 49 degrees Celsius on the 6th in Los Angeles.
An official who responded to a forest fire in the suburbs of Los Angeles told local media on the 7th, ``The weather forecast shows that it will be a life-threatening situation for the next three days,'' saying that the fire may spread to residential areas. I called for evacuation.
Eight people have been killed and 3,300 buildings have been damaged in the series of forest fires.In a national forest park, about 200 people who had lost their escape due to being surrounded by fire by a helicopter on the 5th were hit by helicopters. Damage is spreading, such as being rescued.
