After a weekend of reprieve allowing fire teams to continue making progress battling the deadly infernos burning in Los Angeles County, Southern California now faces another round of fire-fueling Santa Ana Winds Monday.

With the Palisades and Eaton Fires still not fully contained, another dangerous Santa Ana wind event is forecast in Los Angeles for Monday-Thursday.

Santa Ana winds in Southern California are often-fierce winds that topple power lines and trees and can turn a spark into a raging wildfire.

The winds will come and go, with the strongest gusts expected early next week, especially next Monday night and into Tuesday, forecasters said.

The National Weather Service has issued a red flag warning for Los Angeles and parts of Ventura County through Thursday evening, meaning that conditions for wildfires will be at their highest thanks to low humidity,

Southern Californians are bracing for gusty winds and a heightened risk of wildfires less than two weeks after deadly blazes that have killed at least 27 people and ravaged thousands of homes

Forecasters in Southern California expect to issue a 'particularly dangerous situation' red flag warning for the coming week as the Santa Ana wind forecast worsens.

Elevated fire threat is accompanying the return of Santa Ana winds that are taking aim for Southern California at the beginning of the week. While the Southland’s weather conditions have been relatively mellow throughout the weekend,

National Weather Service offices across Southern California are warning residents of an increase in weather conditions that are conducive to rapid fire growth. Meteorologists are most concerned about conditions from Monday afternoon through Wednesday morning when winds will be at their peak and relative humidity will be low.

A strong and dry Santa Ana event with extreme fire weather conditions is increasingly likely,” the NWS said. “This event may be considerably stronger for many areas than the event that we experienced this past Monday through Wednesday.
