Flame Hose Formed in Wildfires in the USA [Video]

The US state of California has surrendered to fires this summer, as it does every summer. The region is living like hell and a feverish work is going on for the fires that have been going on for days. While all this is happening, sometimes quite striking images come from the region. The most recent of these was a fire hose.

In the wildfires in Los Angeles, a fire hose formed. The flames that came together formed an image just like a dust hose. However, the flame hose was much more dangerous than the dust hose. Because it was quite strong, it burned everything it gathered around it. So what is a fire hose? How is it formed?

What is a flame hose?

Flame hoses have the same structure as powder hoses. In this natural event that occurs when the air is turbulent, the flames gather and start to rotate at great speed. The gravitational force resulting from this rotation engulfs everything in the surrounding area. Of course, when this happens, the burning material also increases and the terrible image you see above emerges. In addition, the height of the flame hoses can reach up to 150 meters from time to time. Flame hoses are also known as fire devils or fire whirlwinds among the people.

The fire whirlwind that occurred in Los Angeles was one of the last examples of this natural phenomenon. Trying to contain the fire, which broke out in a bush and 150-decare area, the authorities saw a whirlpool rising with flames when they went to the scene. The recorded images are the kind that you will not easily forget…

By the way; Let’s say that flame hoses are not a rare natural phenomenon. It is possible for this event to occur during forest fires that occur almost everywhere in the world.
