We're up in one of the California wildfires. I'm Jack Callahan, Fox News. The L.A. wildfires continue to rage on. Fox Weather's Robert Ray reports from Pacific Palisades. This Palisades fire has scorched over 21,000 acres since last Tuesday. It is the most acreage burned in L.A. County history, historic at this point. It has destroyed thousands of structures, and that means homes,
and businesses, neighborhoods, livelihoods completely wiped off the face of the earth.

Category 2 hurricane force winds that hit that ocean side, ruined those homes, burned them.
At least 11 people have been killed. More than 10,000 structures have been destroyed. National Guard deployed to assist law enforcement and prevent looting in the wake of those fires. Fox's Christina Coleman is in Altadena, California. I embedded with the California National Guard as they protect areas that have been just absolutely devastated by the wildfires.
