Hell on earth

Terrible news from across the oceans, Montana had to deal with one of the natural calamities that reminds of the biblical doom. Last Friday the wildfire started and increased to 8,000 acres, until Sunday it doubled and 200 homes were evacuated. Everyone had to abandon the place that sheltered their dreams, their sorrows, their expectations and their work. Pat Cross, fire information officer, tried to calm down everyone and stated to the press that the wind will keep the blaze from expanding. However, Seeley and Placid Lakes had to face spots of fire sparked by the wind-blown embers from the main blaze. Also because Brian Schweitzer, the Montana Governor, declared state of emergency, I'm inclined to believe that the fire won't be put down very soon. Even the Federal Emergency Management Agency and FEMA got involved in the firefighting process. Moreover, California deals with the same issue, the Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger declared state of emergency because of the 50 fire engines added on Sunday to the 100 already on the scene. Michigan and southern New Jersey's Wharton State Forest were under fire's assault too and the only good news is that no injuries were reported. Usual for this time of the year, the fire showed us how easily everything we have built on earth could perish. It is like hell on earth, the image of how will all end. For US residents of the areas mentioned above, the fire is their worst enemy and their only hope is that soon the firefighters will put an end to the whole situation. Stay connected, more US news to come.
