The Hughes Fire continues to burn as Santa Ana winds are expected to continue Thursday. A new fire broke out Thursday morning, dubbed the Sepulveda Fire. Here's the latest on both.

Meteorologists said there was a chance the winds would be as severe as those that fueled the Palisades and Eaton fires, but that different locations would likely be affected.

Satellite imagery has captured smoke billowing from wildfires south of the border, fueled by similar conditions to the devastating blazes in Los Angeles.

President Donald Trump will visit southern California this week amid looming winds and threats of new flames with tens of thousands of acres torched and buildings destroyed, according to reports.

Southern California will continue to face "dangerous fire weather conditions" including strong Santa Ana winds and extremely low humidity through later this week, forecasters said Tuesday.

With the Palisades and Eaton Fires still not fully contained, another dangerous Santa Ana wind event is forecast in Los Angeles for Monday-Thursday.

Millions of Southern Californians faced new wildfire warnings on Tuesday (January 14, 2025), and tens of thousands saw their power shut off as strong winds blew across the parched landscape around Los Angeles where two massive blazes have been burning for a week.

Wildfire risk continues across Southern California less than a week after devastating fires swept through the region.

Rain returned to California over the weekend, aiding with the ongoing wildfire fight across the LA area. But the arrival of rain also brought the risk of flash flooding and mudslides in recent burn scar areas.

Los Angeles wildfires are becoming increasingly severe due to the combined effects of drought, dry winds, and climate change, according to a Purdue University expert. These elements contribute to faster-spreading and more destructive fires, posing significant challenges for the region.

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.
