Tonight we discuss the wildfires burning across vast areas of Los Angeles, threatening homes, businesses, and lives. The numbers are staggering… at the time of this recording… At least 10 lives have been lost… 153K people have been evacuated… 34K acres have been burnt to the ground between the Palisades and Eaton fires alone… more than 10k buildings are destroyed. And to make things even worse, a brand new fire in the San Fernando Valley has prompted even more evacuation orders.

Beyond the headlines, there’s the real, human impact. The firefighters on the front lines, the families displaced, the first responders, and the volunteers working tirelessly to provide relief.

Houses, vehicles, schools, municipal buildings, businesses, roads and bridges, farmland, infrastructure and communication… all gone in the affected areas. Officials say the damage is at least 8.5 billion dollars so far and that number will most likely double when this disaster is contained.

Tonight, we’re gonna break down what’s happening in California and how we can prepare for wildfires, whether you’re in the direct path of one or not.

We’ll cover the essentials: what you need in your wildfire emergency kit… how to create an evacuation plan… and what kind of protective gear can help you stay safe if you need to leave in a hurry.

Let’s get to it.
