Dateline: Los Angeles.
A wildfire being whipped up by the hot Santa Anna winds -gusting up to 76mph - has destroyed countless homes and forced thousands to flee before the onslaught.
A mobile home park containing 600 spaces has been abandoned to the fire by firefighters because the fire was burning out of control.
Ariel photos show rows upon rows of homes gutted by the fire in one subdivision alone.
The fire began in the northern foothills near the national forest and quickly spread jumping two highways which caused authorities to order mandatory evacuation from the area.
Addendum:
A new fire south of Los Angeles is causing that section of LA to be evacuated as well.
So all those from the north side who fled south are now being sent elsewhere as well as the residents of the southern end of LA.
Fires in Los Angeles county and Orange county mean its Death Valley or the Pacific Ocean next for residents to go to.
