Just had to evacuate Santa Monica due to Pallisades fire that is rapidly expanding w insane winds and more to come. Took the 10 freeway just past Cloverfield and saw a small fire just broke out. Be safe everyone.

Multiple X users are reporting fires in Santa Monica and possibly West Los Angeles…with at least two reporting a fire next to the Santa Monica Freeway (the 10) around Cloverfield to Centinela.
New fires have also started north of Los Angeles in the Valley near the 5 freeway and Lankershim as well as Sylmar.
The evacuation zone for Santa Monica has been expanding and now includes everyone north of Montana.
Wind gusts could reach 100 MPH in Southern California overnight.
If anyone you love is ANYWHERE in Los Angeles County, please contact them and tell them to be on alert all night in case fire comes to their area. Even urban areas are at risk this evening, not just homes in the mountains.
News of this story is constantly changing. We are told five football fields are burning every 10 minutes or some such crazy metaphor.
