There were flames on either side of us. The car was very quickly getting smoky. We had wet towels over our faces. In Southern California, *** fight against flames fueled by unusually high winds. Four life threatening wildfires are burning. Los Angeles County forcing tens of thousands to evacuate from their homes in the Pacific Palisades, *** neighborhood in Los Angeles, residents abandoned vehicles and ran for safety when traffic crawled to *** stop. We got in the car. And then all the cars were abandoned, so I had nowhere to go, so I just had to get out of my car and start walking. The smoke is so bad. To the east, the fire burning in Pasadena forced *** senior center to evacuate its elderly residents. It's tough. They can't get up. They're stuck on the wheelchairs. We got to lift them. Put them in the van. And north of San Fernando, the Hearse fire broke out late Tuesday night and like the other two, it is spreading rapidly. The fires are growing so fast, first responders are having *** hard time attacking the flames. Having 3 big fires at once. Uh, in *** situation where we can't even use aircraft to dump water on the fires, uh, is unprecedented. It is an absolutely unnerving and terrifying situation to be in.
