Inferno Engulfs Historic WWII Blimp Hangar in Southern California

TL;DR Summary
A massive fire broke out at a historic WWII blimp hangar in Tustin, Orange County. The wooden hangar, which was originally built in 1942, was used to store blimps that patrolled the southern California coastline for enemy submarines during the war. Firefighters faced challenges in extinguishing the flames due to the lack of water supply, as the base is no longer in use. The hangars have been featured in various television shows and movies. Authorities are urging the public to avoid the area while fire crews continue to monitor the situation.
