Incredibly sad. Disasters happen so quickly. Every family should make sure they have an emergency plan, discuss it, practise it, because you never know when it may be needed #wildfireready #fireiseveryonesfight
Many in Lahaina fear that a large number of children who were left at home while schools were closed are among the victims. The confirmed death toll of 101 is expected to grow.

How deluded do you need to be to believe that a wildfire was started by some space weapon because the grass burnt & the trees didn't? Have these people never tried to light a candle or a cigarette in a breeze? *residence time* *surface area-to-volume ratio* *fuel moisture* [1/5]
