  • California fire crews face severe challenges in containing the Palisades Fire, which has burned 19,978 acres, larger than Manhattan.
  • As of late Thursday, the fire has only six percent containment and has destroyed over 1,000 structures, endangering another 13,000.
  • Extreme winds, described as "hurricane force," have complicated air support and firefighting efforts in the area.
  • Residents' evacuations caused major traffic congestion, obstructing access for fire crews and leading to complications.
  • The upcoming weather conditions and strong winds are expected to challenge containment efforts further, while air quality remains hazardous.
