Two wildfires burning out of control Saturday in California
have left cities like Los Angeles looking uncanny and supernatural as plumes of
gray colored smoke filled the sky after more than 20,000 acres of land has been
destroyed. The Los Angeles basin is usually known as a sun-filled area
in the summer, but due to the fires, smoke and ash is covering much of the
populated city.
Many people took to social media to share pictures of the
weirdly colored sky, noting how the wildfires have affected the area as
thousands of homes and a sanctuary for exotic animals are threatened by one
blaze.
Authorities say more than 900 firefighters who are being
hindered by scorching temperatures of up to 112 degrees are battling a blaze in
mountains north of Los Angeles known as the Sand Fire.
Residents were also forced to flee from their homes as the flames from Sand Fire close in on them.
