About 10 million people live in Los Angeles County. According to the head of the fire department, strong winds and low humidity have put everyone in the county at risk.

Authorities warn that the situation is worsening due to gale force winds and dry weather, and there is no way to contain the fire yet. The fire has covered thousands of hectares.

About 1,500 firefighters are trying to contain the fire. Dozens of schools are closed due to high winds and the fire.

According to firefighters, this is one of the most destructive fires in the county's history.

The region is known to be home to many celebrities. Among them, US Vice President Kamala Harris, singer Rihanna, actors Tom Hanks, Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, Ben Affleck and others.

It's worth noting that "Police Academy" series actor Steve Guttenberg stayed behind to help firefighters. He represented the abandoned vehicles and made room for fire trucks.

For climate disasters, there are no distinctions among people based on social status, income, or position. For them there are no state borders, national, cultural and religious differences.

Also in conditions of increasing cataclysms it is necessary to be ready for emergency situations, to study what risks are characteristic for your region and to make an evacuation plan.
