Life-threatening windstorm triggers wildfire in Southern California

Smoke from a brush fire in the Pacific Palisades rises over the 405 freeway in Los Angeles on Tuesday.

Southern California hasn’t seen significant rainfall since last April, and a pileup of dry fuel in combination with the winds has the region on edge. A mandatory evacuation order was issued for the Palisades.
