Flames are racing along the southern California coastline as firefighters work to contain the fast-moving Woolsey Fire. The blaze has so far scorched 150 square miles on the outskirts of Los Angeles and killed two people, whose burned bodies were found in a car in a Malibu driveway on Friday.
The fire was 35% contained as of Tuesday morning.
The Woolsey Fire is just one of the thousands of California wildfires recorded this year. Nearby, another blaze — the Hill Fire — burned over 4,500 acres in Ventura County before firefighters reached 90% containment of that blaze on Tuesday. And in the north, the destructive Camp Fire has killed 42 people. The flames leveled the entire town of Paradise. Cal Fire reported it was 30% contained on Tuesday and had burned nearly 200 square miles in Butte County.
Both of the LA-area fires started Thursday afternoon, and many people had to quickly flee, leaving behind beloved homes and pets.
Here’s what the devastation in southern California looks like so far.
