    To me that’s the standout statistic here. I’m a little less sympathetic to “entire cities” with less population than anything I’m familiar with but holy crap …. My small suburb has way over the population of the entire territory but the size of that fire is 46 times the area! Damn

    Actually, I live near Boston and that fire is over 6 times the area of the city.

    Looking farther afield, that fire is twice the area of New York City
