Yesterday when I saw the WeChat, I found many people transferred one piece of news which was that the volcano broke in Fort McMurray,Canada. The wildfire was not been controlled by firemen and spread to the city. 100k people had been noticed to leave as soon as possible. The sky was been covered by heavy smoke and firelight , and many people’s houses and some public equipments had been destroyed. When the people evacuating, a gas station exploded, the death toll had not been confirmed.
