As a "total eclipse": a forest fire smoke envelops the NorCal cities in the dark
The street lights went on and the drivers turned on their headlights while a bewildering darkness hovered over Chico, CA on Friday afternoon.
Earlier in the week, the forecast promised sunshine and temperatures of 70 degrees, but residents remained largely indoors on Friday, their lights being on, while the smoke from a fire forest was choking the air and blocking the sunlight.
"It sounds like a total eclipse," said Matt Johnson at Twitter. Il a dit qu'il faisait "très froid … comme 50 degrés".
COUVERTURE INCENDIE COMPLÈTE ICI
Chico est à quelques kilomètres du feu de camp, qui a débuté tôt jeudi matin et avait consommé plus de 70 000 acres le lendemain. Les responsables ont confirmé cinq morts et indiqué qu'au moins 2000 structures avaient été détruites.
Plus de 52 000 personnes ont été évacuées jeudi et vendredi alors que l'incendie continuait de brûler, ne contenant que 5% de confinement. À Chico, les autorités ont ordonné l'évacuation de la subdivision Canyon Oaks et de la zone située à l'est du chemin Bruce, entre l'autoroute 32 et la rue E. 20th.
Les responsables universitaires ont annulé leurs cours à la California State University-Chico vendredi.
Ceux qui sont restés dans la ville du comté de Butte ont déclaré que la journée ressemblait à la nuit, le soleil bloqué par de grosses gerbes de fumée.
"Pensez à vous éclairer juste après le coucher du soleil et ajoutez un filtre sépia, et voici à quoi ressemble Chico", a commenté une femme. Twitter.
Un autre résident a déclaré sur Twitter que la fumée étouffée résonnait si fort qu'elle pouvait à peine entendre les grondements des avions pompiers décollant de l'aéroport à un mille de distance.
Même à San Francisco, à environ 300 km au sud-ouest du feu de camp, la couche de fumée du feu de forêt était si épaisse vendredi après-midi à 15 heures. senti plus comme 19 heures Le soleil ne passait au travers de la grisaille que par intermittence tout au long de la journée.
L'air dans la région de la baie de San Francisco était plus dangereux que celui notoirement brumeux de Beijing, ce qui a poussé les responsables à avertir les gens d'éviter de sortir.
Les écoles de plusieurs districts ont annulé des cours à cause de la fumée. Les piétons portant des masques et des foulards sur le visage étaient des vues courantes dans les rues de la ville, tout en évitant de respirer les petites particules dangereuses contenues dans la fumée de bois.
"Nous allons fumer pendant la journée et probablement au début de la semaine prochaine en raison des conditions météorologiques", a déclaré Kristine Roselius, porte-parole du District de la gestion de la qualité de l'air de la région de Bay Area. Les prévisionnistes ne voient aucun changement fondamental dans la météo au cours des prochains jours et ont prévenu d'un retour possible du temps de surveillance des incendies dans la région de la Baie ce week-end.
L'agence a qualifié la qualité de l'air dans la région de la baie de "malsaine". Il conseillait aux personnes de limiter leur temps à l'extérieur, de garder les fenêtres fermées et de remettre les climatiseurs en circulation.
Les vents du nord-nord-ouest continueront à chasser la fumée du feu de camp vers la baie pendant plusieurs jours, ont annoncé des responsables. L'air sera plus fumé dans les North Bay et East Bay et à San Francisco, a annoncé Roselius.
