California Firefighters Make Limited Progress Against Unusually Intense Wildfire
Although forest wildfires are not new news to me, still, I was asstonished after watching the paragraph. It is so hard to imagine such a hazardous widfire happening in Taiwan. In the article, it says that the wildfire effected to "nearly 13,000 hectares, incinerated homes and forced tens of thousands of people to evacuate." Plus, the fire fighters are facing serious drought, in combination with the hot weather, low relative humidity and strong winds making the fire moving very fast and intense. Everything in California seems to be in a mess. The article reminds me of natural disasters that strikes Taiwan every once in a while such as earthquakes and typhoons. Like the residents mentioned in the article, some just refuses to evacuate. They want to stay with their house until the final minutes, which may usually cause rescue problems. In order to keep everyine safe and sound, including residents, firefighters, and soldiers..., we should always follow the orders given by the rescue teams. Let us keep or fingers crossed and hope for the best to the situation happening in California.
