  • Just over 100 days have passed since the Tubbs Fire began, burning from late in the evening of October 8, 2017 until October 31, 2017. This video shows what’s left of Coffey Park, a suburban residential neighborhood in Santa Rosa, California. The majority of the rubble has been cleaned up with assistance from the Federal Government. Despite the cleanup, the property lines are still visible. Thank you to all of the brave first responders who came from near and far to all of the October fires in the Northern California region.

      That land was deemed "Indian sacred" so people were not allowed to rebuild. What happened to that?

      Where did you get that information from? I e never heard anything about it being deemed sacred. Nearly the entire Coffey park area has been rebuilt.

      @@babybrat2958 I ran into a person who actually lost her home in that fire and she told me that the city would not let the community rebuild in that area because "they" found sacred artifacts so her realtor with the help of insurance money helped her to buy another house in Santa Rosa. Yep, then I found out the park had been rebuilt. I wonder if the home lots are a lots smaller now so that they were able to build more houses. IDK

      Look at pictures and video footage of previous extreme wind driven fires…..you will find exactly the same burn characteristics…..so again, not unusual. Look up the Oakland hills firestorm 1991. Houses were incinerated down to foundation with green vegetation immediately next to it during the Oakland hills firestorm. You will also find footage of vehicles. Keep in mind though that cars now days have a lot of aluminum and plastic in them. Older vehicles do not..

      So sad. I still think about everyone out there and the Paradise fires. In 2018, the mayor of Chico said 52,000 lived in and around Paradise. But I've only been able to find about a dozen videos of the residents who survived. I guess we'll never know the names of those who didn't make it out. As long as I live I'll never forget this.

    • @kimmer6
      @kimmer6 Před 5 lety +1

      They cut down the dead trees and left ones that will survive. The Army Corps of Engineers assisted in removing the debris and toxic materials early on in 2018. As of Feb 1st, 2019 when I was there, about 70% of the homes are in the process of rebuild and many are finished and being lived in. Work progresses slowly because there are limited numbers of skilled trades people available and the work force is spread very thin.
      The comments from people saying there is nothing being built are from people who never visited the area and only made their comments after watching CZcams videos. Many homes are framed, roofed to keep rain out, but are unfinished inside and are not sided or stucco coated as of yet.

      patrick Zink..... Yes. I worry because too many young people believe the CZcams garbage posted for many topics. They claim to be ''Free Thinkers'' but are putty in the hands of the deviants who really control social media. This trend is upsetting to me.

    • @jdgoodwin325
      @jdgoodwin325 Před 4 lety

      Trees often survive these types of fires, especially native oaks. If the trees are too close to burning homes then it reduces their chances. A few meters can make all the difference. For instance, most of the trees on the southeast side of the park in Coffey Park were completely unscathed. Trees on the northeast (windward) side weren't so lucky. The pattern of burn was not at all unusual.

      No, because it's a normal fire given the conditions. Long drought, low humidity, high winds, tinder box houses packed in close to each other. It was inevitable.

    • @kimmer6
      @kimmer6 Před 5 lety +1

      Kerstin....very clearly, YOU WERE NEVER THERE at Coffey Park. You never dug through the debris. I DID...on Kerry Lane and on Crestview Drive.
      I have videos of the damage. Copper plumbing lines, sinks, tiles from counter tops, bathtubs, bathroom tiles survived. Bedroom window glass was in jagged pieces on the sidewalk, broken, not melted. Many thin steel sheet metal products survived like furnace ducts, washers, dryers, refrigerators, microwave ovens, stove/ovens, wash machines, clothes dryers, hot water tanks, etc, burned, distorted and rusted after the rain fell a few weeks after the fire. Some aluminum melted like 2 rims on one side of the car in the driveway but not the other.
      Some dumb ignorant bitch posting videos on CZcams kept bleating like a sheep that toilets melted. They were all there, broken from heat but you could see what it was. Bathtubs survived as well as bricks, concrete, chimneys, etc. She lives 2000 miles 3220Km away and saw only drone videos and was never there in person.
      There were 70+ mph winds....113Kmh winds that night. I also have video of Coffey Park...the actual park....with trees toppled over with root ball torn from the ground, big tree limbs ripped off the next morning. The fire came through after midnight.
      You blast Nicolas Carnot but you are wrong. Your patents mean nothing. This was a firestorm and its origin was found miles away caused by trees that toppled live power lines into dry straw grass on Bennett Lane. The wind came channeled through the mountains by Fountaingrove Parkway where fire destroyed some very expensive estate homes. The hills funnled the winds from the Northeast directly into Coffey Park.
      I write this so people who live thousands of miles from here can have a better understanding of why this happened. Many of the same areas burned in 1964 during Diablo wind conditions before houses existed there. The Los Angeles Fires of Dec 2017 500 miles 800Km South of here happened under similar wind conditions, only worse. They are called Santa Ana winds down there. It is nearly impossible to stop fires until the winds die down.
      For those insisting that laser beams and microwaves did this...where is the collateral damage? Pets survived, 4500 people did, 5 perished there because they did not leave in time. The exact kind of damages can be seen in pictures of the Oakland Hills Fire of October 1991 (again, end of fire season). That was BEFORE laser weapons and Smart Meters were invented. The Diablo wind was blowing then as well. I was there. My friend lost his home in Rockridge on Fairlane Dr. I picked through that rubble as well.
      This is California. It happens, and will happen again. Only now with the advent of CZcams these fires are getting instant world wide publication. They are nothing new here.

      @wakeup - Not wildfires. Wildfires do not select what to burn and not burn. Not camp fires. A campfire is a fire at a campsite that provides light and warmth and heat for cooking. Not even the two retired fire captains John and Matt believe any of those fires were wildfires and they risked their pensions and lives to speak out.
