More than 17,000 people told to leave their homes. A wildfire is spreading fast.
The Sandy Fire in Simi Valley, California β€” about 30 miles from Los Angeles β€” has already burned over 1,400 acres. At least one home is gone. Containment? Just 5%.
Wind gusts over 30 mph are fueling the flames. Cal Fire says there's an "immediate threat to life" in some areas.
Firefighters got a break with calmer winds overnight. But the fire isn't done.
And there's a second blaze.
On Santa Rosa Island, a 23-square-mile fire has forced 11 National Park Service employees to evacuate. A cabin and equipment shed are destroyed.
The cause? Investigators are looking into whether a stranded sailor's distress flares sparked it. The sailor was rescued after his boat crashed into rocks. A photo shows "SOS" burned into the ground.
Two fires. Thousands evacuated. California is burning again. πŸ”₯πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
