A fast moving wildfire driven by high winds and dry conditions, swept through the town of Paradise, California, engulfing it with hellish flames that burned down the entire town.

Social media reports said that a hospital, high school and K-Mart store were all on fire. A resident said “The fire roared through so quick it was only an hour of utter panic and fear because then everything burned out.”

And a County Sheriff told a news conference that “we have received reports of some fatalities. Those reports have not yet been verified.”

A local fire official said there were multiple injuries among civilians and firefighters.

With limited escape routes from the town, which is built on a ridge, traffic accidents turned roads into gridlock, with residents forced to abandon vehicles and run from the flames carrying children and pets, officials said. 

It was not possible for firefighters to fight the fire who were immediately overwhelmed and focused on trying to help people escape.

Continuing dry conditions from drought caused by increasing heat and high winds has now made wildfires a year-round threat in California.
