Overview
A dangerous windstorm in Southern California has led to two major wildfires, including the Pacific Palisades fire, which has spread over nearly 4,600 acres. Governor Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency, with over 30,000 residents under evacuation orders. The fire is exacerbated by winds exceeding 100 mph, hampering firefighting efforts and causing significant damage to homes. Another fire, the Eaton Fire in Altadena, has also prompted evacuations and rapid growth. Power outages affect over 208,000 customers in the region, with officials warning of continued extreme conditions.
