Space satellites track astonishing expansion of deadly California wildfires

Recently, the Cooperative Institute for Research in the Atmosphere (CIRA) released a shocking time-lapse video captured from space of the California wildfires. These wildfires began on Tuesday afternoon, leading to the evacuation of 100,000 residents from their homes.

The fires in the Los Angeles area, including the Palisades Fire, Eaton Fire, Hurst Fire, Olivas Fire, Lidia Fire, Scout Fire, Sunset Fire, and Woodley Fire, are threatening approximately 28,000 structures, as reported by Fox News Digital.
