Slave Lake, a town of 7000 was evacuated Sunday night
at least 40% of the town has burned to the ground.
Luckily no deaths.

I grew up near here... about an hour away.

It's very surreal.

If I didn't know better I would almost think this was an image from Fallout.

That sucks. We get them here all the time in Cali but luckily I don't live in an area that would be affected but you can definitely see them first hand just by looking into the hills.

The bible was right, end of days....floods, earthquakes and FIRE!!!!

That does suck though. Crazy how in such a short period everything in the area is reduced to ash.
