1991 Oakland firestorm
The 1991 Oakland firestorm was a historically large urban fire that occurred in the hillsides of northern Oakland, California and southeastern Berkeley on Sunday October 20, 1991, almost exactly two years after the Loma Prieta earthquake. The fire has also been called the Oakland hills firestorm, the East Bay hills fire, and the Tunnel fire (because of its origin above the west portal of the Caldecott Tunnel) in Oakland.
