Extremely dry conditions and Santa Ana winds exacerbate the situation’s quick change. Authorities claim that there is currently no chance of controlling the fires.
Numerous Hollywood celebrities reside in the charming suburbs that have been devastated by the Palisades fire, the largest and closest to the shore. Already, about 1,000 buildings have been demolished.
This is how the Los Angeles area is being affected by the spread of the fires.
When the Palisades fire was first reported at 10:30 on Tuesday (18:30 GMT), it had grown from 20 acres to over 200 acres in just 20 minutes, then more than ten times in a few more hours. So far, orders to evacuate have been issued for at least 30,000 people.
