So, one of the viewpoints is that some kind of laser or other electron particle beam from space or an aircraft was used to cause all these homes to burn up but not the trees.
Here is a recent article about the camp fire in Paradise:
Officials give update on situation in Paradise post-Camp Fire
CHICO, Calif. — On Tuesday night the Paradise town council held a public meeting in the Chico city council chamber on recovery efforts in Paradise.
PG&E told the crowd that 1,500 to 1,800 homes that were not destroyed in the Camp Fire can now receive power and gas service.
Temporary infrastructure is being established by utility crews. PG&E said although much of that infrastructure is above ground, it's among their most fire-safe technology. They said it should be able to power all the remaining homes in Paradise, as well as new homes being built.
Veronica Parks, a six-year resident of Paradise, is determined not to be on the sidelines during the recovery process.
"For us, it's not just laying back saying OK when do we get to go home? We want to get in here and be engaged in the town and what's happening to it now," Parks said.
The Paradise Irrigation District spoke to the crowd about returning water service. They said they'll only charge for labor when reinstalling people's water meters. The price for labor is estimated to be about $500.
The PID is still sending bills out to consumers, but only for services given before the Camp Fire started. They expect the water system to be 100 percent back online by the end of the next business quarter.
Paradise Police Chief Eric Reinbold announced that evacuation zones nine through 13 are being inspected and are due to open next. He said downed trees play a huge role in determining when zones can be opened.
