Roadways Are Closed Due to Debris Flows

Roadways have been closed due to various piles of debris. That includes portions of Highway 70, a major connector between California’s Central Valley and the Sierras that stretches nearly to the Nevada border. That stretch of highway runs through the heart of the Dixie Fire, California’s single largest fire ever recorded. The fire began in the middle of summer and evacuation orders were only lifted late last month. But what’s clear is that the impacts of the fire will live on long after the flames were quelled.
