Los Angeles, United States: Powerful winds forecast for Wednesday threatened to whip up massive fires still burning around Los Angeles, possibly worsening an inferno that has killed at least 25 people.
A week after blazes erupted and spread uncontained, forecasters predicted "particularly dangerous" Santa Ana winds would spike.
"Stay aware of your surroundings. Be ready to evacuate. Avoid anything that can spark a fire," the National Weather Service said, warning of gusts up to 70 miles (110 kilometers) an hour between 3 am (1100 GMT) and 3 pm on Wednesday.
Part of Los Angeles County and much of neighboring Ventura County were in a "Particularly Dangerous Situation," according to the NWS, a designation that was in effect before last week's deadly blazes.
