What forms of warning were people given? TV, radio, social media, text messages, emergency warnings (same method as Amber Alerts)? Seems like the only type of warning system they didn’t have were warning sirens (like the kinds used for tornadoes).
There were no warnings. The wind was blowing at 70mph Sunday night. In the middle of the night power lines began blowing down and that ignited the flames which spread incredibly fast. People lucky enough to wake up stepped outside to find everything they could see on fire, including their own houses. If they were lucky they were able to jump in their car and drive out through the inferno. People grabbed their neighbors and threw them in their cars. There are cars melted in the driveways. I think the death count is going to be high.
