Timelapse footage from Thursday shows a Park Fire “firewhirl” churning near Chico. The National Weather Service says a “firewhirl” is a spinning, moving column ascending air rising from a vortex and carrying aloft smoke, debris and flames. These range from a foot or two in diameter to small tornadoes in size and intensity. https://abc7ne.ws/4c2JqHZ | ABC7 News
