A town of around 100,000 people is in danger, there are mandatory evacuations. There are multiple /pol/acks in the Fort McMurray right now.
It's fucking happening, the fire rises. This is the oil capital of Canada. If there are massive storage's of oil or bitumen, the entire town could explode.
http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/wildfire-destroys-fort-mcmurray-homes-most-of-city-evacuated-1.3563977
It's 32 degrees Celsius there right now, or around 90 degrees Farenheit. This is a record breaking temperature, and it's helping fuel the fire.

you know if it burns further it can burn other towns down, get some pop corn or some porn and wait.
Traffic trying to get out of Fort Mac as far as the eye can see. There's only one highway out, and it's the Southbound 63.
Inbb4 Trudeau uses this as a reason to stop extracting Oil.
>>72867929
>32C
>record breaking
I worked up there that ain't shit, it gets into the low 40s in august
fuck that town anyway, I hope it does burn down. it would be best for all. the housing pricies are about as bad as Vancouver; I was living in an RV campground paying $500 a week rent. open up the area and start a new housing boom, all the long term residents get insurance payouts and much cheaper new replacement houses, maybe the price of gas will even go up if our reserves explode

BY FIRE BE PURGED
Seriously though, have fun fighting fires with no money
I love the smell of a good happening. Can't wait to hear the "smart" unlaid off workers excuses why they're broke in 3 months. Just like road crews and city workers, alot have no concept of finances. Not sure why either. In basic math we got taught all about loans, mortgages, investing. I doubt these knuckle fucks all took trig before they went to lay pipe. And let's hear why this is conservatives fault. Why oil sands are bad. Why a liberals non existent god did this to smite us. I predict 3/10 happening overall. No revolution, minor alternate energy push, expect your drunk canadian friends to be in awfully lulzy money states for the next 2 years

They're really strict on their forestry laws out in Alberta. One of my uncles actually works near Fort Mac, and every time they cut down an area they have to plant trees. Then 70 years later they can cut them down again.

It could be, there were no thunder storms yet this year. My mother claims that there were RCMP in the back woods behind her house "searching" for people on ATVs who could have started the fire.
Yes, hot exhaust from ATVs set dry grass on fire. And not to mention that Notley cut the forest fighters budget by $15 mill. Its probably some salty firemen who started this to prove a point.

They have ordered every part of the city to evac except for my neighborhood, the surrounding area, and a few neighborhoods further south from me.
I got all my shit packed and my computer is ready to tear down in an instant, just got the mouse and keyboard hooked up everything else I own is packed.
Hopefully shit doesnt catch my neighborhood on fire because there is ONE FUCKING two lane road out of this city. Needless to say it's backed up for miles and people are starting to panic and drive on the grass and sidewalk and shit.
