According to the report, the Los Angeles wildfires have left a trail of destruction, killing at least 24 people and destroying thousands of structures, officials said. Although containing the deadly infernos has been difficult and will remain so as ominous new wind warnings were issued for Southern California communities.
The report said that the latest updates on the most destructive in the history of Los Angeles have scorched over 23,000 acres, destroying homes, businesses, and numerous landmarks. Palisades Fire has expanded to the north and the east owing to which evacuation orders and warnings were issued to parts of Encino and Brentwood. The fire has been 13% contained so far.
The report also stated that Santa Ana winds that have fueled the blazes for the past week were picking up in Los Angeles and Ventura counties. The resurging winds could complicate efforts and enhance the risk level, officials warned as they forecast north-northeast wind gusts between 35 to 55 mph. A red flag warning is in effect until Wednesday as strong winds will be accompanied by low humidity and dry vegetation.
The report added that over 12,000 structures have been damaged or destroyed by the wildfires, which have consumed about 40,300 acres of total land. Evacuation orders have been given to 105,000 residents while another 87,000 residents have been warned that they may have to evacuate.
Accordingly, the Eaton fire has been contained at 27% while the Hurst fire has been stopped at 89%. Three other blazes- Kenneth, Sunset, and Sunswept- have been contained completely.
The death toll increased from 10, now 24. There should be plane fighters carrying water to rain the area. The people should have not waited for the warning, they should have immediately fled from the area because it was not their first time to experience it. Deaths could have been avoided.
