We left California in 2020, but years before we noticed that the wildfire situation was different. Whenever there was going to be a large wind event, we had a lot of suspicious fires started. Some started in the middle of the night were a bit too effective and led to deaths. This was all about the time they started pushing the global warming hoax pretty heavily. This has also been used to drive up insurance rates and hit people that are living paycheck to paycheck also impacted with inflation due to terrible monetary policy (remember you’ll own nothing and be happy). If you listen to Rosa Koire explain UN Agenda 2030<\/a>, there is also the implication they’re trying to drive people from more rural and forested areas towards the big cities. And there is some truth to the mismanagement of the forests, as I had a sportbike from 2001 to 2018, and when motorcycling all around northern California, I would come across controlled burns on occasion as there was some forest management in that early period. There are some fires where human negligence or lightning strikes is the cause, but far too many are unexplained. And logically, fires being because of global warming doesn’t make any sense, as drought and varying weather patterns has always been with us and are normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the Palisades Fire, Eaton Fire, and Hurst Fire burn in the Los Angeles metropolitan area, CAL FIRE announced<\/a> on Wednesday that 55 wildfires have burned in California since the start of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCAL FIRE is battling multiple wildfires across Southern California,\u201d the agency wrote on X<\/a>, along with information about the ongoing fires in Los Angeles County. \u201cJust eight days into 2025, there have been more than 55 wildfires.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThere were a total of 55 fires as of this morning, between State, local, and federal jurisdictions,\u201d CAL FIRE public information officer David Acu\u00f1a told The Epoch Times in an email. \u201cSince then, there have been additional new fires.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCAL FIRE\u2019s goal is to keep wildland fires to 10 acres or less, 95 percent of the time,\u201d he said, adding that fires not listed on the website were those affecting under 10 acres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are currently 12,083 ongoing fire-related incidents in California, including 55 wildfires. In total, 26,978 acres have burned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fires in the Los Angeles region have resulted in at least five fatalities.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are currently five fires burning in Los Angeles County and one in Ventura County.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Palisades Fire, located between Santa Monica and Malibu, has destroyed 1,000 commercial and residential structures so far. The fire, which began on Tuesday, remains 0 percent contained. Fire hydrants ran dry at 3:00 am on Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Woodley Fire, located on Woodley Ave. near the Sepulveda Basin, started<\/a> on Wednesday around 4:00 a.m. and was first reported at 75 acres, CAL FIRE said, but has since been reduced to 30 acres. Firefighters are still working to protect structures in the area though containment remains at 0 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Five people have died in the Eaton Fire, located in the Pasadena area, Los Angeles County Sheriff Robert Luna told KNX radio. Pasadena Fire Chief Chad Augustin told a news conference on Wednesday that 200 to 500 structures have been destroyed so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hurst Fire, located in the San Fernando Valley, began on Tuesday and has so far burned nearly a square mile and remains 0 percent contained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lidia Fire<\/a> near Santa Clarita is 30 percent contained, according to CAL FIRE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Olivas Fire<\/a> in Ventura County broke out at Olivas Park Dr. and E Harbor Blvd. around 10:40 a.m. on Wednesday, according to CAL FIRE. So far, it\u2019s burned through 11 acres and remains 0 percent contained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to CAL FIRE, California saw a higher number of fires in 2024, though the number of acreage burned was slightly below the five-year average.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Forecasts suggest below-normal precipitation through February, meaning elevated fire risk, especially in southern California.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The NWS Los Angeles forecasts that fire weather will last through Friday for parts of Los Angeles and Ventura Counties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGusty winds and very dry conditions will continue to fuel fire starts and existing fires,\u201d the NWS posted<\/a> on X.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
