As wildfires continue to rage and spread throughout California, many residents are being forced to evacuate their homes and places of business.
After a brush fire broke out west of Interstate 405 in Los Angeles, roughly 10,000 homes and commercial businesses were placed under mandatory evacuation orders as the fire grew to cover more than 500 acres.
On Sunday, 43 out of 58 countries in California were placed under red flag warnings, indicating high fire risk. Jonathan Cox, a spokesman for the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, stated that conditions throughout the state of California are currently making it a “tinderbox”.
As the evacuation area has been extended further southwest through the Pacific Palisades and all the way to the ocean, California Governor Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency. The Los Angeles Fire Department called the fire “a very dynamic situation”. It has been said that roughly 500 firefighters are currently battling these fires trademarked by high winds that have been consistently reaching 15-20 mph.
