The history of the Deadliest fire in US history, the Peshtigo fire of 1871

3. 1.2 million acres burned and over 1,100 dead

plus a firestorm with the heat, winds and speed. This is similar to what was experienced in CA this past week and Greece a week ago. The problem with Climate Change deniers is that they would listen to this history and say, "See, it happened a 150 years ago so the weather now is the same". Of course you could point out the facts that the firestorms chasing people too quickly to escape are occurring all over the planet and fairly often is a NEW problem but I doubt any deniers would even bother to listen.
