In San Diego the Cedar Fire 2003 destroyed 2,800 structures/homes and the Witch Fire 2007 destroyed 1,200 homes. 4,000 total within 4 years.

These LA fires are beyond devastating for everyone. My coworkers never really recovered after their homes were destroyed in those 2 fires and they re-live it every time a new fire breaks out. It's leaves a terrible memory that never fades.
