💨 Abstract

A new wildfire, the Hughes fire, broke out north of Los Angeles on Wednesday, rapidly spreading to over 8,000 acres due to strong winds and dry brush. This forced mandatory evacuation orders for over 19,000 people. The fire grew to more than half the size of the Eaton Fire, one of two major fires in the metropolitan area. Southern California remains under a red-flag warning for extreme fire risk.
