I think you posted a link on the last thread regarding Trump, Newsome and Brown walking down an area damaged by the California wild fires.

There has been a great deal of commentary here about those fires, and a lot of that has had to do with the inexplicably weird damage and burn patterns. I had not really looked at any of the fire results before.

Well, that pic with with those three has them in front of what for all the world looks like a remnant house foundation. The house is as completely gone as gone can be, yet the trees close by appear to have minimal damage. What up wit dat?

Most interesting to me is right behind Newsome is a wheelbarrow on its side. The tire is entirely burned away. Anyone who has ever burned a tire knows they burn ferociously and for a sustained amount of time. FreeQs, that wheelbarrow is good ol’ good 6 cu ft Jackson, and forever those have been outfitted with hard wood handles.

Those handles appear to be completely unscathed, and the blue paint on the tub is not blistered either. With a tire burning mere inches away from both?

Don’t mean to start a slide, but that scene is in The Upside Down.

Re the photo of Newsom walking with HeWOE after the fire:

Great eye for detail! You make extremely interesting points!

HeWOE = He Walks On Earth ( but I like it because it sounds like Elmer Fudd saying HERO) He also brings woe/pain to derps.

Think the high wind played a big part in what burned and didn't burn. My guess is that the strong wind may have blown the flames from the tire away from the handles and body of the wheelbarrow as it burned.

Someone on here posted a link to the Paradise Adopt a Family group on Facebook last November after the fire which I joined and adopted a young family who lost everything, it really is a huge tragedy where many people are falling through the cracks and not getting the help they need.

Trees, especially evergreen types, have a lot of water in them. And don't think they are necessarily undamaged, many are being cut down so they don't fall down. This picture just a tiny part of the total destruction.
