STORYLINE:
Thousands of homes, buildings and vehicles have been destroyed in the devastating wildfires that have ripped through areas of Los Angeles over the past week.
The burnt remains of properties and cars caught up in the flames were seen in part of a neighborhood in Altadena, near Pasadena, on Tuesday.
Millions of Southern Californians faced new wildfire warnings Tuesday, and tens of thousands saw their power shut off as strong winds blew across the parched landscape around Los Angeles where two massive blazes have been burning for a week.
Santa Ana winds that began gusting over the mountains before sunrise were forecast to continue until Wednesday morning with enough force to carry fire-sparking embers for miles and stoke new outbreaks in a region where at least 25 people have already been killed.
“Life threatening and destructive and widespread winds are already here,” LA city Fire Chief Kristin Crowley told a news conference.
Much of Southern California was under elevated fire risk, with crews on high alert from the Mexican border to Central California, far north of Los Angeles.
Nearly 90,000 households lost electricity as utilities shut off power to prevent their lines from sparking new blazes.
