trying to assess the damage now in six states just since this morning? well, our hearts go out to them, because even though we don t have those type of tornadoes here in california, unfortunately we are familiar with the devastation of communities due to wildlife fires and other natural hazards. so as a result, we re familiar with that and we know the trauma and the despair that sometimes can go along with that. so our hearts go out to those and just hope that everybody is trying to stay as safe as possible. and then what is the best way then, overall, to kind of convey the urgency when it comes to battling the kind of fires that you have been enduring? well, the type of fires that we re starting to see, just the severity and the extent of them, you re seeing fire behavior that you re just not familiar with. i ll use the example of the campfire. when you re having fire progress over 7 miles in an hour or burning a football field and a half every second, those are not
bricks with nothing. that s how hot these fires burn. more than a dozen truck sures destroyed in san bernardino county. and families with little time to get to safety. this was the fastest that i ve ever seen a fire progress. got home and there was no time to evacuate, no time to get anything. reporter: david, these firefighters are battling triple digit heat here and north of us, near sacramento, there are new red flag warnings, a reminder we are weeks away from the peak of fire season here. david? matt, thank you. when we come back here, we re tracking what could become a powerful new hurricane now headed for the u.s. and rob times this out.
