You can tell a lot by the footprint of a wildfire.

NEW: You can tell a lot by the footprint of a wildfire. Here we see the footprint of the wildfire that tore through the community of Tantallon, Nova Scotia (https://t.me/police_frequency/93371?single).

Clearly a wind driven fire moving from left to right using the footage as a reference. Roofers have told local news they saw a pile burning in a neighborhood before the fire took off.

From the footprint, it’s clear it started in the residential neighborhood.

“We had a good vantage point. We were at the high end – we were able to see very clearly and smell that something was going on,” Clattenburg said, noting there was no other smoke on the horizon at that time.

He climbed down a ladder and ran into a nearby yard where a woman was standing on the back deck of a home, crying and speaking on the phone.

“The guy next door said that she is always burning garbage in her backyard,” Clattenburg said, noting he did not witness her burning anything.
