* City of 80,000, Fort McMurray AB. Canada
* The damage costs from the fire ripping through could reach $9 billion. * Supercharged by winds of up to 70 km/h, the wildfire ballooned to 85,000 hectares overnight and is now raging on several fronts near the oilsands city. * More than 100 firefighters, and 10 helicopters and 16 air tankers are fighting the wildfire, with more resources on the way. * In addition to the firefighters battling the blaze in the boreal forest, more than 200 firefighters and 25 fire trucks are in the city itself, protecting homes and buildings. * But in tinder-dry conditions and with winds constantly shifting, all of that manpower alone cannot stop the inferno, said senior wildfire manager Chad Morrison. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aC2iPvXAggM |

This is horrible I know that Alaska has sent firefighters to Canada exactly where I am not sure.. We also have a fire about 10 miles from where I live right now. Looks like a long dry hot summer and well lots and lots of fires this year last year was bad.. Praying for all those families. |

Praying for all those families. * The city was well organized and everyone was evacuated. * Everyone is 100% fine but cautious as the fire burns. * Government has reassured to pay. That "All" property is covered. ** Alaska is facing the same weather and problems

I am so glad to know that someone there thought of the pets. |

he's just mad because there's no Canadian teams in for the Stanley Cup... but the US should be helping, but who knows if the canucks asked or if the US has offered and was declined... seems the US helps everyone all over the world for lesser crap, i'm sure we aren't ignoring Canada now... |
