Sorry to hear that you were one of those involved but glad you made it out OK. Were you able to make it out with any possessions? Did they wever let you know the cause of the fire?
This was 1 intense fire.i arrived on the third alarm i got there before my units did.The conditions were extreme.the hoses were creating freezing spray with temperatures in the 20's and wind blowing up to 20 mph.The fire and smoke could be seen for miles upon arrival.

They are still investigating what caused it.
I was one of the residents who lived in building #6. That building was completely destroyed, along with 1/2 of building #8.
And like one person said the conditions were extreme. The wind worked against the poor firefighters.
