its easier to survive earthquake and tornadoes with wooden houses.. and these set of disaster happen too often than wildfire..
Japan and some other Asian countries that are prone to earthquake still makes use of blocks, cement and iron reinforcement. Others should go and learn how they build their houses to survive natural disaster.

If these has happened in Nigeria by now they would have crucify whoever is in power.
California governor Gavin Newsom is being ripped to shreds right now and has been called to resign. Some disastrous policies he made led to the severity of this disaster. First, he shut off running water flowing in from the North due to the woke ideology of going green, in a desert region that can go without rainfall for an entire year. As a result most of the fire hydrants did not have water by the time the fire started. He cut off the budget of emergency services leaving the fire department understaffed and underfunded. His government sacked firefighters that refused to take the COVID vaccine which was more than half of the workforce and they were replaced by unqualified, inexperienced people based on DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion) not on merit. The results of all these decisions led to this huge disaster. If he had an ounce of shame, he would have resigned once the fire has been successfully contained.

No need to say anything ok. If it happened in Kaduna or in Ebonyi or in Ekiti not only the governor will suffer the insult the man in the centre will be crucify so pls I know what I'm saying.

I read somewhere that the fire was man made.
They should have measures to contain it in place prior.

United States works differently because the states have their own laws and policies without interference from the federal government.

My question is this.

There are many that have their property insured. Their property are ruined by the fire.
The insurance companies are also ruined with all their resources.

How will they make claim and how are they going to be compensated?
As far as I know, Insurance companies are also insured - reinsurance. They'll start from there.

Hmm, so all these rich guys cant use concrete to build their houses na batcher all of them use.
Is very tiring, this fire gutted majority of their buildings. But they are rich so insurance will get everything back and running. But next insurance premium they will pay will be way way higher

They should also feel the heat . No one is above God .

If God want to suffer you , you cannot escape it ; that is why you should always remain humble .

The servants of the Most Merciful are those who walk upon the earth in humility, and when the ignorant address them, they say words of peace. Quran 25:63

When pride comes, then comes shame; but with the humble is wisdom.” Proverbs 11:2.
When did the US say they are above God

Is God also responsible for Islamic terrorism and who is he trying to humble with it

They are not covered by fire insurance btw, for a scale like this if they were covered, the insurance company would claim Force Majure.

A high percentage of rats perished in the great London fire, thereby ending the centuries-old problem of bubonic plagues caused by rats. Another good to come out of te fires.
Sounds credible but see below

.if fire can burn down a city like that then it can be used as a war tactics. And I believe Russia is watching all of them closely.
Fire is escapable. Unless the aim is just to destroy infrastructures/ammunitions at cheaper cost, otherwise, fire is often escapable if just fire without yet some expensive super-burning fuel with it.

When you tell man to fear his creator he wouldn't listen

Everything isn't about weapons and soldiers

The same fire element you were promoting by producing deadly weapons that produces fire at a blast

The high and mighty and now homeless

Neighbors are now family

You can't bomb oh shoot everything with carnal weapon

The case of los angeles in california should serve as a reference point to what will happen to the world when it will be destroyed by fire
Weapons (bombs) are not fire burning, they ignite and produce massive shock that shook things, also blast leaving shrapnels and destroy things with great magnitude. Guns have gun powder that also ignites and the bullets are propelled at great force...

So, in short, fire may be furious but it is little in effect to exterminate or to destroy living creatures.

Lastly,
You can't bomb oh shoot everything with carnal weapon
You have not heard of nuclear weapons. Hiroshima doesn't ring a bell to you.

If I may ask, how the fire they take cross road because best of knowledge, those people has better road and is not possible for a fire to burn via a clear path
The winds carry burning embers to other locations which in turn cause more ignition.

I suppose this is why they employ actuaries. They would have assessed the risk of insurance and reinsurance. The probably of impact on insurance and reinsurance companies simultaneously is low but not impossible. I suspect they diversify their investments accordingly.

If it was water disaster trust me dead bodies would have littered everywhere. Fire disaster can still be managed compared to water but the fire damages are much in California this time around o...chai

I agree, but it will not spread so fast and would have been contained.
The houses might have retarded the spread, but what made it worse was how rich those people are. I mean, they left a lot of cars behind while evacuating, cars with tanks full of petrol. That's what actually finished those homes, the cars.
