Per the Guardian:
About 88,000 people in Los Angeles county were under evacuation orders on Tuesday, with another 84,800 under evacuation warnings due to wildfires.
Here’s where the fires stand:
- Palisades fire: More than 23,700 acres burned, 17% contained.
- Eaton fire: 14,117 acres burned, 35% contained.
- Hurst fire: 799 acres burned, nearly fully contained at 97%.
- Auto fire: Fully contained; no evacuation orders remain in effect.
Southern California residents are bracing for new wildfire warnings and power outages as strong, fire-fueling winds sweep through the region. Some areas could see winds approaching hurricane force on Tuesday, peaking in the morning, easing briefly, and strengthening again later in the day.
Fire crews have been reinforced to tackle flare-ups or new fires. A week after the wildfires began, the flames have destroyed thousands of homes and killed at least 24 people.
