Fire crews are currently battling the Eaton fire, which has grown to 400 acres in size, north of Pasadena. The fight against the fire is being hindered by extreme winds, which have grounded aircraft, according to city spokesperson Lisa Derderian.
Derderian, speaking to affiliate KCAL, mentioned that structures are being threatened by the fire. City authorities are actively working to establish mass care and sheltering facilities for evacuees affected by the blaze.
