THIS INFO IS AS OF JULY 25, 2024, AT 3:06 AM AND NOT THE MOST CURRENT INFORMATION

INCIDENT DATE/TIME:  7.25.24 | 3:06 AM
LOCATION:  Cohasset Rd
AREA/CITY:  Chico
DETAILS:

The Park fire in Chico continues to show extreme fire behavior throughout the night and has ripped through  45,549 acres in 12 hours. 
The size of the fire was officially mapped and announced as of 3:06 AM
Multiple homes, Including several mansions, have been completely destroyed.
Propane tanks could be heard venting and exploding throughout the neighborhood, along with the sound of dozens of ammunition going off within the structures. 
Many trees are on the verge of collapsing across roads, and many others have already fallen, causing access problems that were already an issue.
Cohasset Rd has been ground zero for some of the most dangerous fire behavior within the incident.
Firefighters have constantly been cut off from accessing the town of Cohasset; however, last night, they were able to access the trapped residents and get escorted out of the fire zone to safety.
Many structures on the fire's west side are tucked within a canyon where the most extreme fire behavior has been seen.
We have been pushed out of the area by the fire with only seconds to spare before becoming trapped ourselves.
Due to the dangerous fire behavior, we have been unable to access some of the communities due to extreme heat and poor visibility.
The fire started Wednesday afternoon around 3 pm and quickly exploded due to extreme heat and wind.
It was only a matter of hours before the fire reached 1500 acres and began creating its own weather conditions.
Powerful inflow and outflow winds have pushed the fire in all directions, making the fire unpredictable.
At 6500 acres, Incident command has requested 30 strike teams of engines and many more resources, and more resources continue to show up.
Cavalries of Dozer trailers are funneling in also.
The fire continues to spot up to a mile ahead, making the fire edge deceiving and the dangers of entrapment very real.
No further details are available at this time.

    THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO TO STOP THAT FIRE GET OUT NOW AND SAVE YOUR LIVES!!!!
  • @jayroyer9941
    That's one of the scariest sites to see when you know you have to go through it to get out.
  • @danven1256
    I lost a home in the campfire and it was quite traumatic. In my case though the home was empty at the time. I can't imagine what it's like to lose your home and all of your possessions. Due to the insurance crisis here in California some of these homes are bound to be uninsured. Just a couple days before this fire I was looking at an investment property up in Forest ranch and I noticed a lot of for sale signs probably due to the outrageous cost of insurance.

    All because someone pushed a burning car into a gully
  • @dale2540
    This is all so sad, horrible :( . Loss of land, homes and wild life all over.. Be safe out there.
  • @BallardBaller
    Nice footage! It really shows how bad it gets at 5% humidity with a warm wind in that country.... I've witnessed a tow chain spark start a fire, it frightening how flammable it can get in the foothills
  • @janetclendenin8768
    God bless and leave if you need to!! DO NOT STAY IF IT IS TOO CLOSE!! CALGOR AND FIRE RESIDENT!! I know!!
  • @MeoMiyo
    And the dude that started it will have no consequence. Pray for all those people.
  • They say the fire was started by one person, and the "Fire Tornado" you can see, who started it? Was it also started by the same person? Anyone can start a fire, but: What person can make a fire consume 5,000 acres in an hour? Only the "Laser Fire Machine" can do it.
  • @EliteRoyale
    California should probably recruit firefighters and fire equipment from other states too rn cause it’s better to spend some money trynna fix this than rather watch it all go down than pay more in fixing
  • @rustykerr3174
    The firemen should have a sprinkler system for there tires!
  • Will there be any forest left? I am saddened to see California being burned, year after year... The Golden St͏a͏t͏e ♥️🙏
  • GOD HELP US, I KNOW WE GO THROUGH THIS EVERY YEAR, JUST SEEMS EXECESSIVE IN NATURE, IT DOESN'T SEEM NATURAL ANYMORE.
