We conducted an oversight visit to the Olievenhoutbosch Substation today. The team has made tremendous progress to restore power to the area after a fire broke out on 24 December. The teams have energised two transformers at the substation and currently operators have commenced with a phased restoration of electricity. Areas close to the substation have been restored and other areas will be restored gradually throughout the day. We apologise to residents for the prolonged outage. City of Tshwane

Footage of the initial start of the fires in Lahaina, Maui. #hawaii #wildfire No official cause has been released yet but class action lawsuits have already been opened by multiple law firms, suing the local utility and power companies for their roll in the tragedy. The class action lawsuit alleges that downed power lines that MECO, HECO, HELCO, and HEI owned and operated caused the fire. “The utilities also failed to deenergize their power lines prior to the fire, despite warnings days before that high winds from Hurricane Dora would create "high fire danger." On the day of the fire, the National Weather Service issued a High Wind Warning and Red Flag Warning.” There is still a lot to be determined with this fire, but it’s clear the devastation to the community will be felt for years. The death toll is now up to 80 people. This will likely rise.

🚨🚨2-ALARM FIRE Tucson Fire was dispatched to a call of fire nature unknown at 3:37 this afternoon in the 3100 block of East 22nd Street. Engine 3 arrived six minutes later and reported smoke coming from the back door on and eaves of an abandoned AM/PM. A full alarm was called, and crews started to search for the source of the fire. As seen in this video, there was a significant fire event. The roof collapsed, and operations shifted to a defensive mode. At this time, crews are unable to enter the building to extinguish remaining hot spots, and excavators will be used to tear it down. Firefighters were on the roof when it collapsed, but they were uninjured, as was the individual seen in the video. This video highlights the dangers our crews face every time they battle a fire, and we are thankful that everyone is safe. The fire was caused by homeless activity.

The Cottonwood Fire is a Great Basin monster. The fire is now estimated at 2,000+ acres, and it looks like it’s all of that and possibly more. At this time, all residents and visitors from Hi-Lo Cabins up to Kent Lake have been evacuated. Crews will be taking water from the Pressurized Irrigation pond. Due to this, Beaver City is asking that there is No Watering from the Pressurized Irrigation System until further notice. A massive resource response is ongoing, with another 25,000 acre fire next door also active, The Iron Fire. “She gone.” Thanks to the subscriber who sent in this incredible view of the fire.
