As a San Diegan who lived thru a wildfire that almost burned us out to the sea on 3 sides, my Prayers go out to those who lost everything in that fire. I am so sorry. 🙏😥

My heart goes out to the people of Hawaii. I lost my home and everything I owned as well. Starting over is hard 😪

I am so sorry!! That area is incredibly beautiful. Prayers sent to everyone there. Visited there late 80s, in my top 3 best trips ever

Our two nephews and their their families have evacuated to one nephew's home.. One nephew and his wife lost their home in Lahaina. We have not heard from them since there are no phone lines however we know they are safe. We are happy about that but we will do not know whether they will have jobs after this terrible disaster. We pray for everyone in that area.

Initial reports were that people were going into the ocean water to get away from the fire. That is heart breaking. Then to lose it all. Families with nowhere to go. For anyone who didn't get to visit Lahaina, when I was there many years ago, it had a beautiful, charming, quaint, historic downtown with little shops, art galleries, restaurants with a perfect ocean view. And an enormous Banyan tree in the middle of downtown. You could walk around in a swimming suit and nobody cared. It's tragic the whole town is gone now.

Gathering a family of 8 for evacuation is like herding cats. Best of luck to you and your family.

My family was able to get out on Tuesday when the winds were blowing. It was apocolyptic

So heart breaking! I was there under the big banyan tree 20 years ago. We stayed on Kaanapali Beach. It's the most beautiful place I've ever been. A wildfire destroyed half the town I live in right before new years almost 2 years ago. We have so many more resources and help where I live vs Maui. We're still rebuilding. So many people are still waiting to get into their new homes. Sending love and prayers to Maui. 😭
