Tens Of Thousands Flee California As Worst Fires In State History Turn Skies Orange, Frightened Residents Say Looks Like A Literal, Glowing Hell

https://jonsnewplace.wordpress.com/2020/09/10/tens-of-thousands-flee-california-as-worst-fires-in-state-history-turn-skies-orange-frightened-residents-say-looks-like-a-literal-glowing-hell/

People in the San Francisco Bay Area and across California awoke on Wednesday morning to an eerie scene of darkened, orange-hued skies and ash raining down as historic wildfires rage across the state.

By now it is obvious to anyone paying attention in 2020 that a major paradigm shift has occurred, and our world as we know
it has inexorably changed. Everywhere you look, everything is now
different, from the physical realm we can see to the spiritual realm we
cannot see, a major change has happened. Not only have things changed,
things are rapidly accelerating.

“Little children, it is the last time:
and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many
antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.” 1 John 2:18 (KJB)

As bible believers who stand on the The Book, and
believe what we read there, we know of a certainty what is taking place
right now. The God of Heaven is preparing to insert Himself once again
into His creation, as events long foretold stand of the precipice of
taking place. These are the days of prophecy, and as Habakkuk said, most
will not believe even though they have already been told from within
the pages of your King James Bible. God is working, God is alive, and
God is getting ready to rock this world. Prepare yourselves.

“Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe, though it be told you.” Habakkuk 1:5 (KJB)

‘Good morning, hell’: Californians awake to eerie orange apocalyptic skies as wildfires rage

FROM THE GUARDIAN UK: The apocalyptic skies are due
to light being filtered through smoke from California’s worst fire
season on record, according to a regional air pollution control
organization the Bay Area Air District.

“These smoke particles scatter blue light and only allow
yellow-orange-red light to reach the surface, causing skies to look
orange,” the Bay Area Air District said on Twitter.

Residents of the Bay Area reported oversleeping
because the sky was so dark. Local police forces recommended drivers
keep headlights on all day and bridges and street lights remained alight
as the sun failed to appear this morning.

Surreal images of blood orange skyline flooded social media on Wednesday.

The skies appeared orange not only in San Francisco
but as far north in the state as Eureka. Skies were also reddened across
the area near the city of Chico, where the Camp fire tore through in
2018, decimating the town of Paradise. Part of Paradise was under an
evacuation warning Wednesday as the fast-moving Bear fire burned through
foothill communities and near the city of Oroville.

The science behind the hue has to do with the way
smoke affects what kind of light can get through. The sky is usually
blue because white light from the sun, which is a composite of all
visible colors of light, is filtered through gases and particles in the
Earth’s atmosphere. Blue light is scattered more strongly than other
frequencies, making the sky appear blue.

But when smoke particles and other pollution enter
the atmosphere, much of the blue light is absorbed before it can reach
our eyes, allowing only yellow, red and orange light to reach the
surface. Smoky air also means much of the sun’s light is blocked or
absorbed before reaching the surfacing, making it unusually dark during
the daytime.

The National Weather Service said conditions could worsen throughout the day. READ MORE

The death toll rises as wildfires spread at an astonishing rate.

At least seven people were pronounced dead in wildfires in Washington, Oregon and California on Wednesday, with blazes being driven by high winds and fueled by recent heat waves.

A 1-year-old boy was killed in the Cold Springs Fire in northern Washington, one person was killed near Ashland, Ore., two victims were discovered in a vehicle east of Salem, Ore., and three people were found dead in Butte County, Calif., according to the county sheriff’s offices.

The devastation of deaths and scorched homes came during unprecedented fire seasons for several states in the Pacific Northwest. In Northern California, the fast-moving Bear Fire created apocalyptic scenes as smoke-filled air settled over the Bay Area and produced an ominous orange glow. The blaze forced thousands of people to flee their homes.

Fires appeared even more destructive in Oregon, where officials said a wildfire driven by 45-mile-per-hour wind gusts tore through two towns, destroying more than a thousand homes and raising fears that some people had not been able to escape.

“We expect to see a great deal of loss, both in structures and in human lives,” Gov. Kate Brown of Oregon said. “This could be the greatest loss of human lives and property due to wildfire in our state’s history.”
