Here's how to help wildfire victims as California blazes explode in size
Tens of thousands of California residents have been forced to flee their homes.
Strong Santa Ana winds are fueling multiple wildfires burning across Southern California, forcing tens of thousands of residents to flee from their homes.
The Palisades Fire has spread across more than 23,000 acres and is currently at 31% containment, according to the Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.
Meanwhile, the Eaton Fire has charred more than 14,000 acres and is currently at 65% containment.
At least 27 fire-related deaths are being investigated by the Los Angeles County medical examiner, with many others sustaining injuries.
President Joe Biden signed a disaster declaration for California at the request of Gov. Gavin Newsom, who declared a state of emergency on Jan. 7.
