Fire-ravaged Southern California braces for gusty winds and heightened wildfire risk
SUMMARY: Southern Californians are facing gusty winds and an increased wildfire risk, less than two weeks after deadly fires killed 27 people and destroyed thousands of homes. The National Weather Service warns of a “particularly dangerous situation” in Los Angeles and Ventura counties due to low humidity and Santa Ana winds, with gusts potentially reaching 100 mph in certain areas. Windy conditions and very low humidity are expected until Thursday. Firefighters continue to battle the Palisades and Eaton fires, which have devastated over 14,000 structures. California Gov. Gavin Newsom has deployed resources to respond quickly to any new fires.
