The wildfire that has been raging in Los Angeles for several weeks has flared up again. This time, the fire is in Hughes, a northern suburb of Los Angeles.
The fire, which started on Wednesday, has already burned about 10,000 acres and spread so rapidly that it has become nearly two-thirds larger than the Eaton Fire, one of the two major fires from earlier this season, in just a few hours.
Approximately 50,000 people have been ordered to evacuate their homes due to the fire. Reports indicate that the fire is spreading at an alarming rate, burning an area the size of a football field every 3 seconds.
Earlier, on January 7, a fire broke out in the southern forests around Los Angeles, claiming the lives of 25 people.
