Nearly a dozen people are believed to be dead and many more injured as several fires broke out across Southern California amid historically dry and windy conditions.

Here’s what we know about the active fires as of Saturday morning (Pacific time): • The Palisades Fire is 11 percent contained (up from 8 percent on Friday afternoon) and has burned 21,596 acres. • The Eaton Fire is 15 percent contained (up from 3 percent on Friday) and has burned 14,

Two Los Angeles County wildfires which tore through more than 34,000 acres in four days, killing at least 10 people and destroying more than 10,000 structures, are now among the five most destructive fires recorded in the state of California.

Though the Palisades and Eaton fires are smaller, they rank high in structures burned. Combined, they would equal the second-most destructive California wildfire in history, with more than 9,000 structures burned, according to early Cal Fire estimates. A more detailed analysis of the total number of destroyed structures is still underway.

A new fire — the Kenneth Fire — erupted Thursday afternoon, so far spreading across 1,000 acres in Los Angeles and Ventura counties. The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection says that blaze is 35% contained.

To the northeast, the Eaton Fire erupted in the Angeles National Forest, claiming at least five lives in the suburb of Altadena and damaging or destroying a likely 6,672 buildings as of early Thursday morning, according to the satellite analysis.

Forecasters warned Saturday that gusty winds would make for dangerous fire conditions into next week. Latest updates.
