Some structures were spared.  Most were not.  Paradise California is lost.  There is  stunning drone video (watch above) from the Sacramento Bee of the town that was practically wiped away by what has become known as the Camp Fire. It is now the deadliest and most destructive fire in California history, and it’s not over yet. The Los Angeles Times reports:

The Camp fire has scorched 125,000 acres since Thursday and claimed at least 42 lives as it ripped thorough mountain towns in Butte County. More than 7,100 structures — mostly homes in Paradise — were turned to rubble as the blaze charred the region.

On Tuesday, crews were working to build up defenses around the town of Cherokee near the Feather River and Stirling City, northeast of Paradise and Magalia, which were both devastated by the fire.

200 people are still missing and the fire is only about 30% contained.

Further south the Woolsey fire is still a threat with the National Weather service saying, “Red Flag Warning continues through Wed. afternoon for Ventura & portions of LA County, but wind speeds are decreasing.”
