It has been reported that at least 11 people have died due to this fire.
More than 10,000 people have evacuated the city of Valparaiso, after the city was declared a disaster zone.
Around 1,200 firefighters are fighting this massive beast of a fire, which has destroyed at least 1,000 homes since Saturday.
More to American news' satisfaction a certain music festival is going on this weekend.
Coachella. Coachella. Coachella.
This festival is dominating most of the news sites I have seen, and most of the internet in general.
Which disaster will you decide to keep up with? The life-taking fire in Chile? Or the hipster convention somwhere in California?
