OMG, This is so unreal.
Thank you for posting.
Will try to sort it out and understand.
Prayers for the people of Maui and everyone involved.
That is the dry side of Maui, and is under a drought. The ground that is brown is/was covered with dry dead grass and the link. People are looking for something that is not there and “finding” evidence.
I know 5 people on Maui, and one good friend is volunteering, talking with firefighters, bringing them food, working in kitchens to feed people. There is no talk there of all the stuff on this thread. They know what happened. No one saw any DEW because there weren’t any.
Plenty of photos here. Houses don’t necessarily turn “black” when burned. The person who wrote that article really does not know what he is talking about.
A few photos:
