OMG, this is so crazy. We knew they would get around to burning Texas sometime. After all, way too much attention on the border. Now 850K acres and only 3% contained.

My thanks to others who posted this last year. SO TRUE!

At the ~2:00-min mark on first video, brush is burning and there is what, a 10-15mph wind blowing, yes? There is an edge to the fire. Why? Because brush burns fast; there is no mass (fuel) to sustain high temperatures and a long burn time. In front of the fire line is unburned brush, behind it, quickly cooling ashes. Yes, there are small and even medium size trees, and they will burn hotter and longer, but it’s north Texas and not a California or east coast forest.

Anyhow, so if we were to triple the wind, the brush would burn faster, broader, and yes, even a bit hotter, but not, not, not… like we saw in the videos from yesterday. There simply isn’t enough fuel to generate such dense and voluminous smoke plumes and hot infrared signatures.

An entire truck was consumed by the fire in what looks to be a dirt parking lot. It happens so often that people think it is normal now, I guess.

Exceeeeept… his report does not include anything about geoengineering or the weaponized atmosphere. All of these fires would be fractional in size if such technology wasn’t being deployed. We would still have Lahaina, etc.

Yes, the end-game of reappropriating land is a likely an objective with geoengineering as their big hammer in the tool box

Thank you so much for your insights! Always thought-provoking information.
I have no expertise in fire spread, except when embers were flying toward my face in a field on fire in So. TX when I was a kid. Terrifying!

Well, does this look familiar?! No blue scheme but interesting pattern.

Now becoming the largest reported wildfire in Texas history.

Start at 4:00 min, watch until end. The ferocity of the wind is incredible, unmatched only by the grit of these two firefighters.

I just spoke to my sister in Houston and she said it was/is extremely windy there. She also pointed out that the fires started when a lot of the people were en route to the Houston rodeo. If that means anything I don’t know but a lot of people weren’t home when the fires started.

The Houston Rodeo is HUGE annual extravaganza bring thousands and thousands for days on end…
It’s like the Academy Awards of rodeos. .

We had fires started here in the Hill Country a few years ago on a windy day from a guy with the chains on his trailer dragging on the asphalt. The sparks started grass fires that engulfed the highly resinous Ashe Juniper along the roadway for about a 17 mile stretch. Doesn’t take much if the conditions are right.
