LA fires cause extensive damage as some communities look ‘like a bomb was dropped’

At least seven people have been killed and countless others injured as fast-moving wildfires have torn across Los Angeles, leaving thousands of firefighters attempting to extinguish the blaze.

Officials said Thursday that while progress had been made on the Sunset, Woodley, Hurst and Sunswept Fires, more “extreme fire behavior” and wind gusts up to 60mph are continuing to challenge firefighting efforts.

Los Angeles Sheriff Robert Luna said fire-ravaged neighborhoods in west L.A. “look like a bomb was dropped in them.”

The Palisades Fire, one of the most destructive natural disasters the city has seen, is still not contained. The fire has burned at least 19,059 acres, while the Altadena and Pasadena-based Eaton fire has scorched some 13,690 acres.

Another fire, the Kenneth Fire, broke out north of the Palisades fire on Thursday afternoon, threatening homes near Calabasas and Hidden Hills.

The causes of all of the wildfires are under active investigation, but thousands of buildings and businesses have been destroyed.

Numerous California customers remained without power on Thursday, with roughly 863,000 outages in Los Angeles County and another 857,000 or so in neighboring San Bernadino County, according to tracker PowerOutage.us.

Fire meteorologist predicts ‘last uptick’ in winds before ‘very calm’ conditions

02:45 , Josh Marcus

The powerful Santa Ana winds that helped spread the fires burning around Los Angeles are expected to briefly pick back up overnight, before leveling off later in the week, according to a Cal Fire meteorologist.

“When the [Palisades] fire broke out, the area was under an extremely strong Santa Ana wind event and strong red flag conditions,” Rich Thompson said during a community briefing on Thursday, noting winds could reach 30 to 45 mph.

There will be “one last little uptick” in the Santa Anas overnight, and continued red flag conditions indicating high fire danger until 6 p.m. tomorrow evening, Thompson said.

Later in the week, an onshore sea breeze and “very calm, very quiet” conditions are expected.

Unfortunately, powerful winds will return by Sunday and extend into next week.

Utilities helped cause water shortage during fires: Biden

Thursday 9 January 2025 22:26 , Josh Marcus

As fires continue to run rampant around L.A., officials have said they’ve at times had issues accessing enough water from hydrants to put out the blazes.

The issues have prompted some on the right to erroneously allege that California’s leadership has emptied the state’s reservoirs.

The actual cause of the shortage, President Biden said on Thursday, was that utility companies shut off power in certain areas to avoid power lines sparking new fires.

The lack of electricity then impacted water pumping systems.

Initial estimates on the number of structures destroyed by wildfires are based on heat signatures picked up by aircraft, Cal Fire told CNN.

“It doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s a residential structure or commercial structure. It could be a vehicle. It could be an outbuilding,” Todd Hopkins, an incident commander for the agency, explained Thursday.

However, teams are on the ground to make more detailed inspections. They will catalog whether a house is damaged or completely destroyed.

“The thousands of structures can mean many different things besides just a home, but it is thousands — plural — that have been destroyed, thousands of structures,” he said.
