Wildfires are wreaking havoc in Southern California, with multiple blazes burning out of control in Los Angeles County. The Eaton fire in Altadena has rapidly expanded to 600 acres, a significant increase from its size just a few hours ago. This sudden growth highlights the unpredictable and dangerous nature of wildfires.

Meanwhile, the Palisades fire near Santa Monica has engulfed more than 2,900 acres, posing a serious threat to the surrounding area. A third fire, the Hurst Fire, has also ignited north of San Fernando, reaching 100 acres in size.

Firefighters are working tirelessly to contain these fires and protect lives and property. The dry and windy conditions in the region have made firefighting efforts challenging, with the fires spreading rapidly and unpredictably.
