Bro, hold on tight because I'm about to drop the news I found out today! Southern France, man, caught fire like it's Fane's grill when he puts too much marinade. A vegetation fire started Wednesday afternoon in Herault, spread to Aude, and in two hours it torched 800 hectares.
800, dude! That's like six neighborhoods in Berceni. And the wind, damn it, blew the smoke all the way to Marseille, to the airport.
There, passengers on one of their flights smelled burning and freaked out thinking the plane was on fire. The pilots calmed them down: 'It's not from us, it's from outside.' Buddy, have you ever seen anything like this?
150-200 people were evacuated from two communes in Aude. 550 firefighters fought the flames, even brought in reinforcements. By evening, the fire was 'controlled in some areas,' but not out.
As the prefecture said, it's like saying you paid half your debt to the betting agency: you're not relaxed yet.
