Santa Ana winds threaten LA wildfires and neighborhoods
Light breezes fanned the flames but the National Weather Service warned that strong Santa Ana winds could return. Firefighters contend winds have helped turn wildfires into infernos that leveled entire neighborhoods with eight months of drought and no significant rainfall. The blaze threatens to cross Interstate 405 into the Hollywood Hills and San Fernando Valley.
