I had to laugh at that. The scale of wildfires between CA and FL is like the difference between a nuclear bomb and a sparkler. The reason that wildfires aren't a big deal in FL is because (a) the air is humid, damping fire growth and generally creating fire-adverse weather conditions like rain, and (b) the fauna is wet, so it doesn't burn as easily, quickly, or as hot. In CA in the summer, the air is dry and hot. Fauna can get so dry that it can be used as kindling, resulting in fires that spread to thousands of acres in under an hour, that burn so hot they can create their own self-reinforcing weather systems and even ignite fauna from a distance.
You're also going to need to support your claim that FL fire crews train in the West, since based on all reporting from the last 4 years of CA fires, all of the crews were from Western states, as far east as Utah. (The last time FL news sources report a crew being sent to assist CA was in 2015.)
At least in most parts of Florida. If you go to a Florida beach on any day of the week, you'll see every race sun tanning or swimming with or next to each other, having fun.
That described my experiences in FL in Orlando and in beach cities. The interior and northern half of the state...was just as racist as I was led to believe it would be.
I really wish I had the link to it but I have failed to find it when looking recently.
Fauna is wildlife.
But I stand by my statement. The fires get hot enough to light animals on fire from a distance.
> and even ignite fauna from a distance.
Scary
Part 2. I recommend you try watching videos of "local Florida resident decides to ride out hurricane". Floridians are less afraid of death, generally. Every year mother nature threatens to kill us. It takes a lot more to scare us. Also, wildfires aren't a big deal here. Hard to believe, we have some of the best wildfire responses in the country. Our fire crews train throughout the west coast (most wildfires you hear about only happen in about 3 states on the west coast) on a regular basis so when they do spring up in Florida, theres a swift and hardcore response. Politics... eh, Orlando has seen the brunt of it. Most of FL is actually pretty racially diverse other than some really small pockets (where no one cares). I'm constantly told theres racial tension on the news, but in real life, no one here cares. At least in most parts of Florida. If you go to a Florida beach on any day of the week, you'll see every race sun tanning or swimming with or next to each other, having fun.
