– The above photo shows how a bulldozer was used to clear abandoned vehicles in the middle of the road.  The fact that many false evacuation phone alerts were sent caused many people to stay at home and ignore the real ones that came in later.  This caused a major traffic jam on the roads forcing people to leave their vehicles on foot.

 

– This photo shows how natural gas lines in neighborhoods were not shut off by utilities.  As homes burned the gas pipes kept burning.  The video from this photos shows all the neighboring houses with burning gas pipes.

 

– This before and after photo from SkyNews shows how a concrete building in the middle of a town can be gutted out by fire.

 

– Evacuating large farm animals was a difficulty for this person who walked their horses through a burning town.
