Massive wildfire threatens thousands in San Bernardino, CA

​Wildfires started within the last week are threatening homes across California, sending more than 80,000 residents fleeing under mandatory evacuation orders and warnings. Several blazes are nowhere close to being contained. At least one person has died. With California coping with the fifth year of the worst drought in over a century, the dying trees and dry underbrush have turned the state into a tinderbox. Firefighters are battling several massive blazes throughout the Golden State. The wildfires have caused millions of dollars of damage so far, and destroyed hundreds of homes and other buildings. The Blue Cut Fire near Devore in San Bernardino County began in the late morning hours on Tuesday. Within an hour, it had spread to 1,000 acres; by Wednesday afternoon, the inferno had engulfed 65,000 acres with 0 percent containment. The state of California has absolutely become a tinder box in the summer of 2016, because every week it seems like California is dealing with a new one this year so far. This fire has become super massive in the last 24 hours, so I would guess with 0 percent containment, I would only have to guess this will grow to 100,000 plus acres within the next few hours. So if you know anyone in this area tell them to pack up and leave, because this fire might be the one...so don't wait it out. If this grows to 100,000 acres overnight this thing would measure 100 square miles...Which would possibly mean they will just have to let it burn itself out.
