Los Angeles Wildfire Extent

The extent of the forest fires in and around Los Angeles is horrific and may become even worse in the next few days. The New York Times has some very detailed maps showing the extent of destruction. Here is a close up of Altadena from the Hurst Fire.

This one shows the Palisades Fire. I’ve broken it into eastern and western sections with a slight overlap to make it more readable, however the best way to see it is on their site, though there may be a paywall.

Here is a Los Angeles Times map showing the current extent of the major fires. There are other small ones including one in Ventura County. The red areas are mandatory evacuation zones, yellow is the evacuation warning zones.

Here is a detail of the Palisades fire better showing the fire perimeter and zone boundaries. The 1 and 27 are route numbers, not specific points of interest.
