Meteorologists said there was a chance the winds would be as severe as those that fueled the Palisades and Eaton fires, but that different locations would likely be affected.

A fresh round of deadly 100mph Santa-Ana winds will hit western states, raising America’s wildfire threat back to ‘critical’. As much of the country freezes in a minus-20C snow blast, warm, dry winds along the Pacific coast threaten ‘rapid fire spread and extreme fire behaviour’.

No more rainfall is expected in the area until possibly late in the first week of February, but Santa Ana winds aren't in forecast either.

Southern California will continue to face "dangerous fire weather conditions" including strong Santa Ana winds and extremely low humidity through later this week, forecasters said Tuesday.

With the Palisades and Eaton Fires still not fully contained, another dangerous Santa Ana wind event is forecast in Los Angeles for Monday-Thursday.

More Santa Ana winds are expected in California, which is still reeling from the wildfires in Los Angeles County. As the winds intensify, experts are also warning of hidden health risks in the air. Reporter Sarah Alegre has more.

As of Jan 21, 2025, firefighters in southern California, USA, were still struggling to extinguish two of the largest wildfires the state has ever seen. The Palisades fire broke out in the western suburbs of Los Angeles,

A quick scientific study finds that human-caused climate change increased the likelihood and intensity of the hot, dry and windy conditions that fanned the flames of the recent devastating Southern California wildfires.

A new study finds that the region's extremely dry and hot conditions were about 35 percent more likely because of climate change.

The fires, likely to be the costliest in world history, were made about 35% more likely due to the 1.3°C of global warming that has occurred since preindustrial times.

Human-caused climate change made the Los Angeles-area fires more likely and more destructive, according to a study out Tuesday. Why it matters: The study — from an international group of 32 climate researchers — shows how climate change fits into the myriad factors that made the multiple blazes one of California's most destructive and expensive wildfire disasters on record.
