“#Ferocious wildfires turning West Coast into hell on earth<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n Parts of the West Coast looked like hell on earth as ferocious wildfires \u2014 made worse by dry conditions and wind gusts \u2014 continued to rage Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The infernos are scorching through hundreds of thousands of acres in California, Oregon and Washington, forcing mass evacuations and rescues.<\/p>\n

The National Interagency Fire Center reported Wednesday that 96 large fires are burning in 12 states and scorched more than 3.4 million acres.<\/p>\n

Twenty-six were reported in Washington and Oregon, while 24 were raging in California.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, Gov. Kate Brown declared a state of emergency in Oregon \u2014 where a wildfire in the Santiam Canyon region turned the sky apocalyptic shades of deep red and orange, sending smoke wafting through the air in nearby Salem.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is proving to be an unprecedented and significant fire event for our state,\u201d said Brown, Oregon Live reported.<\/p>\n

The Santiam fire and the so-called Lionshead fire have leveled an estimated 200,000 acres, according to the outlet.<\/p>\n

Thousands of Oregonians were forced to evacuate immedia<\/a>tely, with Brown warning \u201cpeople\u2019s homes, lives and land are at risk.\u201d<\/p>\n

One resident, Crew Dutler, shot heartbreaking video showing the city of Talent, in the southwestern part of the state, engulfed in flames, when suddenly, a fireball explodes in the background. Dutler believed the blast was in the vicinity of the Talent Irrigation Building.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe all need to do everything we can to minimize every single spark because, w\/these conditions, a spark could easily result in a wildfire,\u201d the post said.<\/p>\n

Marion County resident Jody Evans, who lives in Detroit, Oregon, said evacuating was harrowing.<\/p>\n

\u201cFire on both sides, winds blowing, ash flying \u2014 it was like driving through hell,\u201d she told News<\/a>Channel 21. She said fleeing left her with one question: \u201cDid you lose everything, or is the only thing you saved yourself?\u201d<\/p>\n

In California, two of the three largest fires in state history have been tearing through the San Francisco Bay Area for the past three weeks, though are now mostly contained. More than 14,000 firefighters are battling the blazes.<\/p>\n

Flames sent 14 smoke eaters fleeing from the Nacimiento Station, a fire station in the Los Padres National Forest on the state\u2019s central coast, the US Forest Service said. Some suffered burns and smoke inhalation and three were flown to a hospital in Fresno, with one in critical condition.<\/p>\n

Residents in the Sierra National Forest have been rescued via helicopters over the past three days, with fires destroying 365 buildings and at least 45 homes. Fire officials said about 5,000 buildings were threatened.<\/p>\n

Infernos were also burning in Southern California, in the mountains of Los Angeles, San Bernardino and San Diego counties \u2014 with the notorious Santa Ana winds threatening to push flames into communities.<\/p>\n

One of the blazes was sparked by a gender-reveal party gone wrong in El Dorado Ranch Park in Yucaipa, San Bernardino County. That fire has spread to more than 10,500 acres.<\/p>\n

The fires have raged in the west under gusty, dry conditions \u2014 though some respite, in the form of cooler, calmer weather, may be in sight.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe significantly colder airmass is helping reduce critical fire conditions across the West, however, most of West coastline and adjacent counties have Red Flag warnings in effect for part of today,\u201d the National Weather Service said Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Winds were expected to decrease by Thursday, \u201cbringing some relief to the ongoing fires and fire weather threat,\u201d forecasters said.<\/p>\n

Nearly 2.3 million acres have burned this year in California, surpassing a record set two years ago.<\/p>\n

Studies have linked the increase in wildfires in the US to global warming from the burning of coal, oil and gas, with climate change making California drier and plants more flammable.<\/p>\n
