Donald Trump has given a catastrophic statement about the worsening climatic conditions that would light up fires in California. Whereas, the firemen have been fighting probably the biggest out of control fires on record for the past week. As Trump’s proclaims the government will help the state in such a crisis. The governor Gavin Newsom said “The Government will also help the people influenced by the flames and emergency, counseling, housing, and other social services.

California is preparing for dry lightning and windy breezes that boosts up the fires and feeds the current of the fire to bursts. The state has requested help from Australia and Canada to contain the fire, which has killed six people, more than 100,000 people are displaced and have burned several homes. The fire blazes started by an unordinary blast of lightning which was fed by a burning constant heatwave a week ago. The climate was cooler and damp which helped firemen make ground. The upcoming predicted climate is not in the favor.

Forecasters have warned that things could get even worse, giving ahead warning for Sunday morning through Monday night. The National Weather Service cautioned about the potential for dry thunderstorms taking note of that. “Lightning, windy and flighty storms around will be the main threat.” The storms could not just light new fires, yet additionally stroke the flares which are already consuming the state.
