So terrible. Has there been any word on what started the fire? I didn’t see it in the article and don’t remember reading the cause in any of the other articles covering this.
Early news broadcasts were saying it was electrical caused by a downed power line from the wind. Started up the hill a bit, above the bypass I think.
Thanks, must’ve missed it in the earlier coverage.
