California wildfires live updates: At least 27 dead as 3 blazes still burn in Los Angeles, Ventura counties
Three wildfires continue to burn in the Los Angeles region, according to Cal Fire. The Palisades and Eaton fires have scorched nearly 40,000 acres, destroying thousands of homes and forcing tens of thousands of evacuations. The fires are 27% and 65% contained, respectively, but authorities said earlier this week that the blazes had little growth.
