Visualizing California's current fires, some of the deadliest and most destructive on record.
California is ablaze once again, and despite an already horrific season these new fires are still setting records.
The Camp fire that engulfed the Northern California town of Paradise is already tied for the deadliest fire California has ever seen. Officials have confirmed 29 fatalities as of Monday morning, and with more than 200 people still unaccounted for, there could be more to come. The mayor of Paradise told the BBC that 90 percent of the town’s residential area is destroyed, and indeed the fire is California’s most destructive on record.
