Associated Press, GREENVILLE, Calif. (AP) — A 3-week-old wildfire engulfed a tiny Northern California mountain town, leveling most of its historic downtown and leaving blocks of homes in ashes as crews braced for another explosive run of flames Thursday amid dangerous weather. The Dixie Fire, swollen by bone-dry vegetation and 40 mph (64 kph) gusts, raged through the northern Sierra Nevada community of Greenville on Wednesday. A gas station, church, hotel, museum and bar were among the fixtures gutted in the town dating back to California’s gold rush era where some wooden buildings were more than 100 years old. The fire “burnt down our entire downtown. Our historical buildings, families’ homes, small businesses, and our children’s schools are completely lost,” Plumas County Supervisor Kevin Goss wrote on Facebook. PLUMAS COUNTY, Calif. — Shane Grammer painted beautiful murals in the aftermath of the 2018 deadly Camp Fire and now he has made his way to Greenville after the destructive Dixie Fire. "The Dixie Fire ravaged many lives, many homes, and community gathering places. The Greenville Southern Baptist Church on Wolf Creek Road suffered a great loss as well." Grammer posted on Facebook while showing his latest work on a church chimney near downtown Greenville. KRCR News |
