Damn....Hell on Earth.

As i said earlier, this fire will be good for Fort McMurray.

Nobody died and tens of thousands of families in an area of high unemployment and record levels of personal debt... Will get cheques and a chance to rebuild or move somewhere better.

Fire restores things.

Those who see only the negative in events like this are free to think what they like.

Two people have died while evacuating. How is this a good thing you dope?

14 years later and you are still up to the same shit . Some things never change.

Close friends and some business colleagues just relocated 30 mins south of Fort Mac.

All four families have lost their homes.

They are not quite through the break-up there, so the rivers and lakes still have ice on them, taking water-bombers out of the equation.

The fiery beast is being fought on the ground and with eleven helicopters - like pissing on a burning house.

The death toll in this massive fire so far?

Two babies born as the fire approached the hospital.

Wonder what fire related names the parents will give them?

Phoenix is too obvious.

“It’s chaos on the roads. People are panicking. It’s gridlock on the roads. Flames are right next to a gas station,” said Carina Van Heerde on radio station KAOS.

Perfect name for the local radio station!

So while the douchebag Lance continues to make light of this tragedy, here is another element that confirms you as the complete tool you are buddy...


The Ryan family would gladly let the fire take their Fort McMurray home, if it meant getting back what the fire already took — Emily.

"Ultimately, it's still a shock, the grief comes in waves," said Chelsi, Emily Ryan's sister.

"It's tragedy, layered on tragedy."

On Wednesday Emily Ryan, 15, was like many others, forced to flee Fort McMurray.

She joined Aaron Hodgson, her stepmother's nephew, in an SUV.

Highway 881 was busy, but RCMP say traffic was still moving at highway speeds as people tried to put distance between themselves and the fire.

At around 1:30 p.m. the pair had all but escaped the fire when, just outside of Lac La Biche, the SUV collided with a tractor-trailer.

Both were killed on the scene.

The crash ignited a massive fire that closed the highway and put up plumes of smoke that could be seen kilometres away.

Emily's father, Cranley Ryan, a Wood Buffalo firefighter, rushed to the scene when he heard about the crash, Chelsi said.

Their father has been relieved from active duty in order to be with his and the Hodgson family in Edmonton, she said.

Emily, one of a set of triplets, loved books, her sister said.

Side by side on her bookshelves sat the first editions of Harry Potter and almost any dollar Emily was able to scrounge would go to putting a new book on her shelf, Chelsi said.

"She was loving, always hugging or cuddling and she loved to be the centre of attention," Chelsi said. "She has a beautiful singing voice and she was a wonderfully creative person."

Chelsi described her sister as an old soul.

"She was always well beyond her years in maturity," she said. "We're sure she's not very happy either about being 15 forever."

The fire in Fort McMurray has forced 80,000 from their homes and still rages on.

Many neighbourhoods are still threatened and the fire is growing, as of Thursday evening the size was estimated to be 85,000 hectares.

While the worst may be yet to come, for the Ryans little else matters.

"There's lots of grief to go around, but ultimately anything we lose is just stuff," Chelsi said.

"We'd let it go a thousand times for Emily to be with us."

It speaks!

Victory is mine.

Car crashes happen every day....what's your point, mute boy?

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

Finally!

A rational explanation for the disaster...

All that said, it sure doesn't seem at all implausible that the Fort McMurray fire was caused or, at least, exacerbated by climate change. I mean, come on. It's 30C in early May. We had no winter. There's little snow on the mountains. The Bow River never froze. For goodness' sake, there were rafters on it as if it were high summer over the weekend.
