Evacuations are underway on Sunday after a massive wildfire broke out in Los Angeles amid a blistering October heat wave.

Temperatures soared into the triple digits this weekend, and the winds began kicking up on Sunday.

According to CAL Fire, the “Bouquet Fire” broke out on Saturday afternoon in the Angeles National Forest to the east of Santa Clarita.

WATCH:

Los Angeles still has not recovered from the January 2025 Palisades fire.

Only 28 properties have been rebuilt of the more than 7,000 destroyed homes thanks to Democrat policies.

More than 80% of the homes burnt down don’t even have permits to begin the reconstruction process.
