Twenty-eight people have died across the Los Angeles area. Officials have said the true death toll isn’t known as the fires continue to burn.

Fueled by powerful winds and dry conditions, a series of ferocious wildfires erupted the second week of January and roared across the Los Angeles area.

Emergency crews rushed to Malibu, California, late Wednesday after receiving a chilling 911 call reporting multiple individuals on fire. The incident reportedly occurred near Decker Edison Road, and authorities are actively investigating the situation.

For years, some of us have fought for putting utility equipment underground.

By 2020, as a result of California s recent extreme environmental and social policies the state lost 4 3 million acres to wildfires

Epic events like the Southern California wildfires do not have a singular cause. While we don’t yet know the official causes of the fires, we do know that the weather and climate conditions when they started made for a perfect storm for the rapid spread of the flames.

A new report suggests that climate change-induced factors, like reduced rainfall, primed conditions for the Palisades and Eaton fires.

California homeowners who have experienced loss from wildfires offer a glimpse at the road ahead for Los Angeles fire victims.

Before evacuating from her Malibu home the day the Palisades fire erupted, Cassandra Riera soaked the plants in her yard, moved flammable patio furniture inside and hooked up her private fire hydrant to two long hoses that she left coiled tightly on the ground.

The destruction in parts of Altadena, a few miles to the west of Sierra Madre, and Pacific Palisades, which had burned in a separate fire on the other side of Los Angeles, made these areas appear bombed out.

The Petaluma-based Guy Fieri Foundation brought its large disaster relief trailer and smoker to the Cal Fire base camp in Malibu on Jan. 12 and began dinner service the next day, according to foundation spokesperson Irika Slavin. Slavin said the deployment theme was “serving those who protect and serve us.”
