Wildfires Rage Around Southern California

There are currently several large wildfires burning in Southern California, in and around the Greater Los Angeles area, fueled by dry conditions and an intense heat wave. The Airport fire, Bridge fire, and Line fire have each burned tens of thousands of acres in the mountains and wilderness, and are encroaching on more-populated areas, forcing thousands to evacuate. Gathered below, images from the past week, of these destructive fires and those affected by them. See also “The Line Fire Is Too Close to L.A. for Comfort” by Caroline Mimbs Nyce.
