Fire in Los Angeles

A strong windstorm, overgrown vegetation and dry weather conditions are responsible for igniting the most destructive fire Los Angeles has ever seen with more than 30 square kilometers burned in less than 48 hours.

Time-lapse video of the fire, stitched together from various webcams, shows how a small plume of gray smoke began to rise in the "backyard" on the outskirts of the city on Tuesday morning.

At first the smoke seemed harmless, but within minutes the plume had turned into a thick cloud as flames began to burst through dry bushes.

It wasn't long before the "city of angels" caught fire and now, less than 48 hours from the initial spark, the fire is on track to be the most destructive fire ever, having engulfed the luxury villas of celebrities and caused an estimated $48 billion in damage.

Los Angeles Fire Chief Kristin Crowley believes the fire started accidentally in a backyard of a residence around 10 a.m. Tuesday. She told reporters the fire was "spreading at a rate beyond anything we've ever seen... it's unlike anything we've ever seen in our lifetimes."

The prospect of such a fiery storm was raised by podcaster and comedian Joe Rogan last summer, who recounted a chilling conversation he had with a Los Angeles firefighter.

Speaking to guest and fellow comedian Sam Morrill on the July 2024 episode, Rogan said: "One day, the wind will be right and the fire will start in the right place and it will burn from Los Angeles all the way to the ocean and there's nothing we can do about it."

The firefighter's prediction, as stated by Rogan, appears to have been borne out, with adverse environmental conditions and winds pushing the fire into an uncontrollable state.
