Fort Mcmurray - Canada's Oil Hub Burns - 80,000+ Evacuated

You should read the mail friend, your own Canadian media covered this as a best they could and they have all the facts right up until the town burnt down. The federal and provincial government of Cana-duh Decided to cut back on wildfire fighting resources, that is the real story and nobody there is going to buy some BS about a terrorist attack, there was plenty of news about this fire on the second of May and the great federal and provincial government of Cana-Duh blew it off. In fact there were a slew of wildfires going on from the same Lighting storm, in a general area, like over 10 of varying degrees of concern. You just got mis-managed, nobody took into account the winds and the threat to F.M.

You have NO Snow there, Relative humidity and the Woods is bone dry in May and this is just the beginning of a long hot summer there. Perhaps there is a reason what resources there were diverted to a brush fire in the weeds is a problem, there were many that sprung up from the same storm in the area and it is documented NEWS.

I just heard on the news that the fire is the size of Chicago, NY and DC all combined. That is huge...but maybe since I've never seen a wildfire...maybe they are all big like that.

You misunderstand me ... I'm not suggesting they're incompetent. It's gone because these Jesuit demons and the dark principalities that back them wanted it gone. Expect to pay a lot more for Saudi fuel real soon.

85,000 hectares or 850 sq. Kilometres in size as of this morning. The size of Calgary. One hectare is the size of one rugby pitch. Burning at very high 800-1000 °C.

How come all those burnt out trucks & cars did not explode from the intense heat of the flames. I'm thinking here about those vehicles having a full tank of gasoline?

Wow, so it would take 8.5 hours of driving at 100 km/hr to get from one end of the fire to the other? That's crazy. I think it's 85 km so about an hour to get from one end to the other.

I've been right in the middle of that sort of fire.
The most shocking thing?
Full propane tanks remaining intact until the fire burned out.
Physics is a weird, amazing thing that sometimes does you favors.

How much would I have to pay you to shut the fuck up for a month?

You're right. A propane company building caught fire last night, but the tanks did not. Mind you, firefighters put in a lot of work on that one. A gas station, however, exploded.

The facts are Western Canada is getting hammered with record heat every year, earlier 'n earlier in the season. High 20's and a few +30c in may area the past few weeks. We finally got some rain last night. First time since early last fucking MONTH. High winds and thunderstorms rolling now could spark a wildfire in my backyard. its getting fucking dangerous out here yet everyone is more focused on some political terroristic bullshit.

WE Got you covered Canada! Don't fret about world oil or the arabs, We in the USA have a HUGE oil field called the Bakken field. There are BILLIONS of Barrels of our strategic reserves and we will build a pipeline TO Cana=Duh
so that you can have the same overpriced gas and oil you get there now.

We got your back Cana-Duh. Don't worry about a single thing.

P.S. all the investors into the tar sands project will have to write this loss off on their taxes.

OH! AL-BUTT-HURT AL-BERT_UGH!!

Wiki says that it started South of the urban service area, which just means south of Fort McMurray. Technically, it was a city until 1995, when it became an urban service area.

This does not mean a service centre, i.e. gas stations.

Wow, so it would take 8.5 hours of driving at 100 km/hr to get from one end of the fire to the other? That's crazy. I think it's 85 km so about an hour to get from one end to the other.

I'm here to call it like it is. Sometime's I think I'm inside my own simulation, but that's a whole different topic.

Wait, what?
If it's 85 000 hectares, that's about 850 sq kms.
The square (sq) is important.
So we need to find the square root of 85 000.
That is (Google tells me) 291.5.
That means 290km long by 290kms wide.
Not a straight line. It's a square.

I think you've disappeared up you own simulation as well.

Didn't read all the responses.

Is there a site or something to donate to the families?
