Wind gusts topping 70 mph in the San Gabriel Mountains are providing a taste of the conditions that are expected to continue into Thursday.

Much of Los Angeles County will again be facing red flag critical fire conditions Thursday as a powerful and “particularly dangerous” Santa Ana wind event continues to combine with low humidity to raise the risk of wildfires.
