wahlberg's. but i thought an actor, mark wahlberg, would die. but then. then you can't have a family plan. three if mark wahlberg loses. yeah, but i thought that we've seen. it's solid. it's solid. just let it go. mark wahlberg wins. los angeles continues. firefighters and communities across southern california are bracing for another round of strong winds that could further devastate the region. [music] >> the anticipated winds, combined with low humidities and low fuel moistures, will keep the fire threat in all of los angeles county. critical. >> this is what's left. everything is decimated. the town is decimated. >> from ktvu, fox two news. this is the four. >> this afternoon, southern california is on edge as winds

ramp up once again in los angeles and ventura counties. the national weather service has labeled the fire threat a particularly dangerous situation. that is a rare warning prior to this season. la forecasters had only ever issued such a warning twice, and in the last three months they have issued that warning four separate times. the increasing winds threatening to potentially undo the progress that's been made by firefighters. welcome to the four, everyone. i'm alex savage and i'm greg lee. >> the critical fire weather is expected to last through at least wednesday. at least 24 people have lost their lives in this historic firestorm. >> ktvu is jesse gary has been following all the latest updates on the firefight. he joins us now live from our newsroom. and, jesse, there really are some serious concerns about these winds as they pick up once again. alex. >> greg, that is exactly right. as a matter of fact, within the past hour, officials held a briefing on the palisades fire. now, crews are working to identify heat sources around the edges of the fire so they can try and stem the spread, get

greater containment. but the biggest concern they have right now is a red flag warning that went into effect, actually a little bit earlier than is anticipated. it was supposed to go around 4:00. it went just a little bit earlier than four, maybe 345 here in the pacific time zone. so that red flag warning is in effect now. firefighters are using this favorable weather that they had earlier in the day, early monday, to try to attack the infernos. they were using air drops to put large amounts of water on these areas in the southland. there have been advances that have been made from fighting the fires, both in the eaton fire and the palisades fire, but they are worried now because of this wind event that is moving into the area, that that could all be undone. as you heard the gentleman say, the national weather service is classifying this as a pds, a particularly dangerous situation because of the winds. officials say that the atf also is now in the southland. they are investigating the possibility

that these fires were intentionally set. so the atf on the ground investigating the possibility that one or all of these fires, the result of arson. we don't know the extent of the investigation. obviously, they're just getting on the ground and running. and obviously there are still areas that are burning. gentlemen. >> all right, jesse gary, giving us the latest information on the firefight. jesse, thank you so much for that. all right. law enforcement agencies in the los angeles area. they have arrested nearly 50 people who were in those mandatory evacuation zones. and nine of those people were charged today with looting in the areas of the palisades and eaton fires. >> the warning shot remains do not go ahead and engage in looting. engage in internet scams, engage in price gouging. do not violate evacuation orders, and do not commit any of these crimes in which people are

trying to profit from the tragedy of the people who have suffered from these various fires. >> authorities today also released ring video of some of the arrested looting suspects entering an evacuated home. they allegedly stole over $200,000 in property. >> we have heard a lot about the pacific palisades, but neighboring malibu was also hit hard. this video showing some of the work and the damage along the pacific coast highway. you can see homes, cars, street lights all reduced to rubble. as we mentioned, there are renewed concerns about the return of those santa ana winds. ktvu meteorologist rosemary oroczo is here with that part of our coverage. >> yes, with the winds already picking up and expected to grow worse as we get into tuesday wednesday time frame. greg, giving you a look here at what is going on over the palisades fire, where the winds generally gusting anywhere from 20 to or 15 to 25mph right now reported 15. relative humidity is 20% as we move over towards the eaton fire. pretty much the same relative humidity is low. winds

are gusting to 18mph. that relative humidity 15%. so very dry. critically dry. and the gusty conditions out there. some of the readings in and around ontario. the wind gusts right now to 28. santa ana reporting 25. van nuys 26. over towards oxnard, which is actually ventura county. the winds are gusting to 33. and i put that in there because it is not just a los angeles county area. take a look at the red flag warning. it stretches from san diego through los angeles, over towards ventura, santa barbara, as well as san luis obispo. so this is going to go on until wednesday evening. relative humidity again going to remain low, but the winds expected to pick up even more so for tomorrow afternoon, when we could see gusts 60 to 70mph during the afternoon. i've been kind of watching the observations, and there have been just isolated areas that i'm seeing with wind gusts to 50mph or more. but the forecast here as we roll into tuesday. notice the shades of reds and

even purples popping up there into the afternoon and then going into wednesday as well. even when the winds die down for just a little while, they're back up once again. wednesday perhaps. could be some of those stronger winds before that wind advisory. or i should say red flag warning expires at 6:00. also, keeping an eye on the forecast when it comes to the smoke, because their ears and air quality alert in place over southern california, that will probably go all the way through wednesday, maybe even a little bit longer. but those winds continue to push the smoke off towards the coast and then towards the pacific ocean. at least that's what we're seeing with this forecast here. i'll have a look at what we can expect here at home as our wind advisory has expired. but now we have a frost advisory to talk about this coming up in our local forecast. >> all right. we'll see you in just a bit. rosemary. thank you. a number of bay area strike teams are on the ground right now helping fight the wildfires in southern california. ktvu james torres has more on the oakland firefighters who are answering the call. >> we're currently working 24 hour shifts. >> nathan leal is one of about

two dozen oakland firefighters working in southern california on the front lines of the eaton fire. >> now we're we're going through every we're sifting over every grid of the fire, essentially to make sure there's no more embers and there's nothing that's going to continue this fire to move on or progress even more or even further. >> it's one of several bay area strike teams in the area trying to help eliminate the threat of the out of control wildfires. a personal mission for one fire official representing santa rosa. originally from pasadena, born and raised down here. >> went to school in altadena. a lot of friends either displaced, evacuated or have had their homes destroyed. >> some conversations these firefighters are hearing on the ground are striking a nerve for those from oakland. after city council voted to temporarily shutter a handful of fire stations to make up for a budget deficit. >> we've had a lot of conversations about this

happening in our city, in our community, because when we interact with the residents, a lot of them have expressed some frustration on the water supply issues and a couple of things that may not have worked out well timing wise. and when we talk to our crews, it's in the back of our mind. >> the top of their mind continues to be to help. helping people affected and helping local firefighters put an end to these fires. >> it's truly devastating just to drive city blocks and see nothing standing, nothing remaining. and that is incredibly hard and incredibly hard to see, especially when whatever we do or what everybody's doing, doing their best to see people's lives changed, lives lost. it's very hard. >> oakland also sent four apparatus, as well as a search

and rescue team down to southern california. those teams are helping people in need and in some cases, recovering some bodies left behind in the devastation. reporting in the oakland hills i'm james torres, ktvu, fox two news. >> firefighters in southern california are also being offered help from countries from around the world, including war torn ukraine. ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy says 150 firefighters are prepared to assist. california national guard officials responded with a post on x to zelensky's offer of support by calling it, quote, nothing short of extraordinary and a testament to the power of global partnerships. fire crews from mexico arrived over the weekend, and more crews from canada are also en route. >> today, republicans in the state assembly called on governor newsom to hold a special session on california's deadly wildfires. the group held a news conference at the state capitol this afternoon. this comes as lawmakers postponed a special session on preparing for

legal battles against the incoming trump administration because of the wildfires. the republican said the state must do more to protect communities and prevent disastrous wildfires. they also said the insurance market needs to be stabilized as rates soar and some carriers stop writing policies altogether. >> we have insurers fleeing the state, and i'll tell you what's going to be really bad is when we don't have insurers, and all you have is the government. that's not a good situation, right? so we need to you know, it's not like there's an easy path. but again, a special session where we really come together and bring all the stakeholders and begin earnest and work on this. i think we can come up with solutions. >> the governor said today that he is expanding the current special session to approve new funding for the l.a. wildfire response and preparedness against natural disasters. >> cases of dementia in the u.s. could surge much higher. coming up, we'll talk to a specialist about a new study out today suggesting the risks of

developing the disease are much higher than previously thought. >> also, we'll have the details on a tsunami warning that was issued after a powerful rthquake hit ar of (woman) i've got this dream... and you're all in it! (banker 1) let's hear it! (vo) with wells fargo premier a team can help you plan for your dream. (woman) i have this vacation home... (banker 2) so, like a getaway? (woman) yeah, but... it's also an eco-friendly artist retreat. (banker 3) so, you're expanding your business... (woman) ...and our family!

can you help me plan for that? (banker 1) yeah! let's get started. (vo) ready to meet the dream team? you can with wells fargo. i told myself i was ok with my moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis symptoms... ...with my psoriatic arthritis symptoms. but just ok isn't ok. and i was done settling. if you still have symptoms after trying a tnf blocker like humira or enbrel, rinvoq works differently. rinvoq is a once-daily pill that can rapidly relieve joint pain, stiffness, and swelling as fast as 2 weeks for some. and even at the 3-year mark, many people felt this relief. rinvoq can stop joint damage. and in psa, can leave skin clear or almost clear. rinvoq can lower ability to fight infections. before treatment, test for tb and do bloodwork. serious infections, blood clots, some fatal; ...cancers, including lymphoma and skin; serious allergic reactions; gi tears; death; heart attack; and stroke occurred. cv event risk increases in age 50 plus with a heart disease risk factor. tell your doctor if you've had these events, infection, hep b or c, smoked, are pregnant or planning.

don't take if allergic or have an infection. done settling? ask your rheumatologist for rinvoq. and take back what's yours. (♪) dementia is higher than previously thought, according to a new study from nyu langone health. roughly two out of every five people over the age of 55 in the u.s. will develop dementia. researchers project the number of people diagnosed with dementia each year will roughly double by 2060, when approximately 1 million americans will develop some form of cognitive decline. much of this trend is driven by baby boomers, who are reaching their later years, as well as the shifting racial makeup of the u.s. population. the study, reported in the journal nature medicine, found significant racial disparities when it comes to dementia risk. >> joining us now to talk more

about this is doctor han li, a neurologist with kaiser san leandro medical center. doctor, thanks so much for the time. why is the risk for developing dementia so much higher than we thought it was? >> the study basically looked at a larger group of people in the united states. it's a more modern look at what our patient population looks like. they also looked at more diverse races in the united states, and they also projected to 95 years old. so we're hypothesizing that humans will live longer and longer over time. and so the risk goes up and up and up. >> what does this study tell us, and how would you sort of describe the risk of developing dementia that this study is laying out? how serious? how significant is this? >> i think it's significant in that it is a warning to us that we need to take this very seriously, and that we will be facing a significant portion of

the human population with dementia. and so i do think of this as a warning. i also think of this as a beacon of hope, because we do know that there are modifiable risk factors, meaning that there are things that we can do in our lifetime to reduce that risk. so i think on one hand, it does sound a little bit scary for some people. but on the other hand, if we invest now in our health, we could potentially change the future. >> doctor, you mentioned how this study goes deeper into the racial diversity of patients here, and that found striking differences in dementia risk specifically for black americans. and this is something we often see across the board with health disparities. but why are those dementia rates such a stark difference when it comes to racial disparities there? >> yeah. in the past, we excluded a large swath of the us population in our studies. and now what we're seeing is that

we're seeing the african american community participating in these studies, and we're finally seeing that their risk factors, things like depression, blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol, these things are really impacting and increasing the risk over time. >> can we talk here about sort of the big picture of what this means more broadly for, for all of us, sort of the burden that is going to be put on, on society as a whole to care for a growing number of older americans who are dealing with cognitive issues, dealing with dementia. do we have the systems and the services and the resources in place to handle that? and if not, how do we prepare? >> i think we do need to invest more. i think our patients will feel like they don't have access to the experts they need in order to get the best care. so what that means is that we need

to be proactive with our community. our government, convincing our leaders that more investment needs to occur because it affects all of us in the future. if either one out of ten americans will develop this over the age of 65, or you will know somebody in your lifetime that will be afflicted with this disease, and you have to take care of those patients. and so this is going to affect all of us. it doesn't matter who it is. and so we need to invest together. >> doc you alluded to the sort of actionable items. so for people that are watching now that may have this in their family, what can they do to lessen the risk of developing dementia? >> yeah, this this percentage of 42% sounds very scary. but i do want to give out another percentage, which is 45% of the risk factors in dementia is modifiable, meaning that you can change your life to reduce that risk. so you could either be in that 42% or you could be in that

58%. if you change certain things like, you know, preventing traumatic brain injury, make sure that you're physically active. stopping smoking, taking care of high blood pressure. these are things you can do. and so i want to be hopeful that if we enact these things in our life, we can change this percentage and we can change our trajectory. >> yeah, really important perspective. we appreciate the time and the insight. doctor john lee, neurologist with kaiser in san leandro. good to see you, doctor. thanks for the time. pleasure. >> japan was rattled today by a strong earthquake, followed by a tsunami advisory. the 6.9 temblor was centered on the southwestern island of kyushu at 9:19 p.m. local time, one man was slightly injured after falling down some stairs. there are no reports of damage to buildings. officials say an initial tsunami wave, just over three feet high, made landfall within 30 minutes of the quake. some coastal residents were urged to evacuate and to stay

away from the sea and coastline. that tsunami advisory has now been lifted. >> all right, let's talk about our weather here in the bay area as we give you a live look at the san francisco skyline. a lot of folks started off with some breezy conditions, and now we are really going to cool things off as we head toward the evening hours. let's bring in meteorologist rosemary oroczo with more on what we can expect. >> yeah, a little bit of a blustery start this morning, alex, but the advisory for wind allowed to expire as we go into the evening hours, the calm, clear conditions will help provide for very cold conditions by tomorrow morning. here's a view over san francisco, where we have had a lot of blue sky and sunshine out there, and with all that clear sky remaining in place, a good opportunity to see the wolf moon. it is a full moon this evening hour. locally, it will rise at 501 and set at 737. over the last few evenings. you may have caught a glimpse of it. it's just absolutely beautiful and likely to remain bright in the sky for at least a couple more days. so let's check in on

the winds right now where we do have mount saint helena reporting 27mph, oakland north 37, again falling a little bit below advisory level, the national weather service allowing the wind advisory to expire, but still a little breezy out there. concord reporting an offshore breeze at 20. fairfield sustained at 12. our temperatures this afternoon a little bit cooler compared to yesterday for most. mountain view right now a wind at about 15mph. mountain view you are four degrees cooler compared to yesterday. sfo down by four. napa down by five. down by three. concord as well as livermore, where we range in the upper 50s to low 60s across the region. santa rosa, one of the warmer spots there and upper 60s for you at this time. and in the south bay san jose reporting 65. but you head over towards san francisco sfo. it's a cool 58. and for the inner east bay areas like walnut creek, upper 50s as well, getting into the overnight hours, the frost advisory is going to be for our north bay, east bay, south bay and over towards the santa cruz mountains, our inland cities, both valleys and hills. you can

see it does not include the coastline. it does not include san francisco. it is not does not include our bayside communities. i'll have a look at the temperatures expected for tomorrow morning, the afternoon highs, and what we can expect in the extended forecast all the way into the weekend. >> coming up in israel-hamas ceasefire and hostage deal could be gaining momentum before president biden leaves office. i'm trey yingst in tel

police chase and crash. the police cruiser collided into a building at san bruno and paul avenues, and the suspect's vehicle crashed into a nearby pole. this all happened just before 330 this morning. investigators say it happened as police observed that car driving recklessly. officers then tried to make a traffic stop and that began a pursuit. after the crash, the suspects ran from the scene, but officers did take them into custody. and police say they also seized a gun. the officers and the suspects were all treated for non-life threatening injuries from that crash. >> mideast ceasefire and hostage talks are possibly in their final stages after more than 15 months of warfare. >> as fox news trey yingst reports, officials say the next few days are going to be critical to determining if this deal will hold together. >> we are close to a deal and it can get done this week. >> the biden administration could be ending with a breakthrough in the middle east. officials say they see

significant progress between u.s. and arab mediators towards brokering an israel-hamas ceasefire and hostage release deal. >> the structure would free the hostages, halt the fighting, provide security to israel and allow us to significantly surge humanitarian assistance to the palestinians who have suffered terribly in this war that hamas started. >> sunday, president biden and israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu were on the phone. the white house said biden discussed the changing regional circumstances in lebanon, iran and syria and stressed the need for the fighting to end. also cooperating on negotiations is the incoming trump team. >> these are not partizan issues. these are american national security issues. our coordination thus far, the engagement we've had, it's been professional. it's been deep and substantive. >> there's been only one brief cease fire since the war began in october 2023, and hamas is still holding nearly 100 hostages in gaza. their families

say they feel overlooked. >> we're not getting any guidance yet from the government of israel, understanding if it is a deal for all the hostages, or is it just a partial deal? >> the war ignited a humanitarian crisis in gaza. so far, more than 46,000 palestinians have been killed, though that number does not differentiate between militants and civilians. in tel aviv, trey yingst, fox news. >> still ahead, the mayor of paradise will join us live as he reaches out to officials in southern california dealing with the aftermath of the deadly wildfires.

many the images of the wildfires tearing through the neighborhoods of pacific palisades and altadena bring back painful memories of the deadly 2018 camp fire in paradise. 85 people were killed and more than 18,000 structures were destroyed. >> and joining us now live is the mayor of paradise, steve crowder. mayor crowder, we appreciate the time today. i want to start off by by pointing out the fact that this is really a personal, this disaster unfolding in southern california. you lost your home in the camp fire in 2018, and now your stepdaughter has also lost her home in the eaton fire in the altadena area. having been through this before, what

did you say to her? >> well, it it's i mean, i think the first thing we said to her is go out and get a house, find housing, because that's that's the number one thing. after the camp fire here, there was no housing in the area and motels were were filled. hotels were filled. you know, we're going to guide her every step of the way because we kind of wrote the book on it. but that was the first suggestion that we had for her was get some some permanent housing for right now. >> and, mary, our thoughts certainly with your stepdaughter and your family at this time. the conditions that we're seeing, especially the winds in southern california, eerily similar to the camp fire conditions, describe how challenging those circumstances can be, and perhaps the ptsd that that brings with what you're seeing and what you saw. >> well, i've been involved with speaking about a lot of fires with different communities, including hawaii. and when i was

watching the images of la and seeing the dry conditions and the wind conditions can't get up any, any aircraft to fight it and the speed of which the fire was traveling, it was a carbon copy of our campfire. and yeah, this one, this one really got to me. >> you have a mayor reached out directly to the people of altadena. there were the eaton fire tore through to offer your support. offer some of the lessons that you've learned in paradise. and obviously to offer a message, a broad sort of message of hope about what it takes to rebuild and recover. what are you telling the people in that community about what the path forward looks like? >> well, the first thing i told them is, you know, when you get the opportunity to walk through your town, you're going to look and it's going to look like a nuclear bomb went off and you're going to go, oh my god, there's

no way we can recover from that. because that was the first thought i had. and the more i went up, the more i saw. i started looking at things going. well, i think, i think we can do this. and the longer it went, it was, i know we can do this. six years later, we're well on the way to recovery. we've still got a long ways to go. one thing that that i told him is don't let anybody tell you you can't do this because they're wrong. you can do this and you will do this. and we're we're kind of the proof of that. >> mayor, on that note, as you said, you continue to rebuild. the population is coming back. we're also seeing insurance now being offered to some homeowners in paradise. and that was fairly recent. what can people take away from the hopes of that, from what you have set forth as sort of a playbook of how to recover from just the worst of disasters? >> well, i mean, it's just one foot in front of the other. and,

you know, the important thing is you got out safely. that's the number one thing. obviously, you lost things that can't be replaced. and you kind of get a mindset that, well, okay, we lost stuff and some of it can't be replaced. the other stuff can. and then it's, you know, do you want to come back to your community. and my answer without even thinking about was, absolutely, i'm coming back. this is my home. i love this community. and, you know, there's going to be challenges along the way. it's not going to be a quick process. we're figuring our rebuild is a 20 year rebuild right now, six years into it, we've got about a third of our housing stock back. our population right now is about 11,000, as opposed to 26,000. but we have our community back. >> yeah, a lot of people

committed to being there in paradise, a place that they love. finally, mayor, as we wrap up the conversation here, you know, we talk about taking away lessons from from a disaster, like, like the campfire. what do you think the state and the county leaders can do at this juncture with these fires in southern california, to try to make the process of rebuilding easier for the people in those communities that were affected? >> well, the governor said he's going to relax code standards. i don't know exactly what he means by that. one thing that we did is we were coming into a new code cycle. they change every two years. we stayed with the previous one to help alleviate some things. one of the things that was going into effect in our code change was solar on every house. so that was eliminated for people that were rebuilding. they didn't have to add that expense to their rebuild. so it's little things

like that that that can help them. >> yeah. all right. paradise mayor steve crowder, who's been through so much and is now offering that insight to the people down in southern california as they go through this painful process. mayor, thanks so much for taking the time. >> thank you so much. >> the southern california wildfires are another reminder to harden your home by clearing defensible space. experts also recommend documenting what's inside to help recoup losses in the event of a fire. realtor hillary murphy of village associates in orinda says videos or photos taken annually will help make sure claims include upgrades as well as your possessions. she says that was crucial when her parents santa rosa santa rosa home burned in the 2017 tubbs fire. she adds it's important to make sure you are not underinsured. >> make sure your policy is up to date. most people set up their policy when they buy their home and they never think about it again. but the cost to rebuild it has gone up and up and up in california. and so you really want to make sure you have adequate coverage, that you

have extended coverage in case you need to replace your home. >> murphy also says fire safety has become a big piece of the real estate puzzle, as some buyers are now including insurance contingencies in their offers so they can pull out if the property cannot be insured. sellers are also being more proactive with vegetation management, so everything is up to code before the home changes hands. >> the southern california fires are forcing many parents to have difficult conversations with their children about what's happening. child psychiatrists say it is natural for children to feel anxiety during a disaster, even if they're not directly affected. doctors say it's important to validate your child's feelings, give them room to express themselves, and help maintain their daily schedule. >> you might think that the entire city of la is on fire or something like that. they can develop some kind of anxiety disorder if they're really afraid. if they are living in the acute stress situation, they are constantly feeling that something traumatizing is going

to happen to them. and it is not healthy for kids. so we really need to limit the information that the younger kids have. >> definitely, as a parent, i feel like it's our responsibility to be mindful of what our kiddos see. and so right now, given my daughter's age, definitely limiting her screen time. >> doctors say parents should stress that a child's home is a safe place and share the preparations by the family and community in the case of a fire or other emergency. and what happens? maybe if something like that happens in their neighborhood, it may be time to seek some professional help for your child. if they're crying more than usual, not eating well, or they have disrupted sleep. the academy of motion pictures arts and sciences announced that it will delay the oscar nomination announcement due to the wildfires. the academy planned to announce oscar nominees on january 17th, but pushed it back to january 23rd. several events that come before the oscars were also postponed or canceled. the oscars is still scheduled to

happen on march 2nd, and you can stay up to date on the very latest on the southern california wildfires at our website. that's ktvu.com. and by downloading the free fox local app on your smart tv. >> schools in santa rosa will begin a series of town hall meetings tonight to address community concerns about potential school closures and consolidations. the district plans to close at least four schools by the end of the school year. it's an effort to save $11 million for the next two years and offset a $20 million deficit. the first town hall begins at 6 p.m. tonight at montgomery high school. more meetings are scheduled throughout the month of january. feedback from these meetings will help guide the district's final decisions, expected in february. we could see the contents of the special counsel report on the trump election interference case as early as tomorrow. federal judge aileen cannon, who was appointed by mr. trump, issued a ruling today. she says the justice department can release part of the report from former special counsel jack

to battle several destructive wildfires in southern

california. >> the strong wind gusts expected this week could impact the fight. fox's sara alegre is in pacific palisades with the latest there. sara. the winds, as we said, a major concern. what are you seeing feeling right now? >> yeah. hi there. i mean, i'm in a neighborhood right now that was completely destroyed by the palisades fire. where i'm standing at, we have the light winds here, but in other places, we are dealing with the potential of gustier conditions. and all it takes is that one wind gust that allows those embers to spread, causing even more damage. and this damage is costing people billions of dollars, is what we'll see when we look at big picture, when this is all said and done. and that's why we have a lot of locals here on the ground trying to do what they can to clear out a lot of this debris to help the rebuilding process. just that one day sooner. >> and sara, obviously, we are starting to hear a lot of these really emotional stories, personal stories of what people did as these fires began to break out. you spoke with a man

who stayed behind even after evacuations were ordered to try to protect his home. what did he tell you? >> yeah, well, we had a lot of people that did this. i mean, i met a man named chuck hart. he grew up here in the pacific palisades, and he has family that has lived here for generations. he got the call that there was a fire starting. and sometimes you get that here in los angeles. he didn't believe it would reach the extent that it did his crews. he had a team of construction members just helping him battle the fire. and they said, you know, at a certain point they were doing okay. it was suddenly when they got and they lost access to water. i should say that the story began to change. pretty soon they're out of resources and there's nothing that they can do. almost feeling helpless, their hands were tied, so they worked hard to battle those fires, helping those brave firefighters as much as they could in a very stressful situation. but now, here we are days later. and what they're doing now is the cleanup

process. we have a lot of these downed trees, downed power lines in this area, kind of dangerous debris, especially as we're still dealing with the weather threat that is against us. extreme fire weather conditions. you have those santa ana winds that's lowering those humidity levels that much more. that's dangerous, especially with all the debris that's surrounding me right now. so if they can clear it out and do what they can to help, yeah, they're going to do it. and they've been doing it for days upon end and getting little to no sleep. and let me tell you this too, they're not only dealing with the loss of their neighborhoods and the loss of their local grocery store and so on. they've lost their home. but what are they doing? they're out here helping a community in need. >> and, sara, i want to ask you, what has been the process, especially with all that debris and the downed power lines, about letting folks come back to see what is left, if there is anything left of their homes there in the palisades. >> yeah, that's an excellent question. and with all the evacuation orders and warnings lifted, it's very difficult. the

only people that are allowed up here is the los angeles department of water and power. so public officials and of course first responders as well, they're allowed up here, media as well. so we can tell these stories and deliver this information to you. but we have a lot of the people who may have lost their home, may have not, and they just want to know. i was actually driving up to this area earlier, and a police officer stopped me and said, hey, can you please look at this home and see if this home is still standing? and we talked to the woman, we got her address, and i had to deliver the news that her home was unfortunately destroyed. her family comes from russia. she asked if there's any little mementos, any little artifacts from her time there in her home country. there's anything left behind. so we were rummaging through what is left of her home, really a blackened frame, trying to find little pieces of family history, their daughter's little ceramic art projects as well, trying to find

little things for these families to bring them back home. but just delivering those news. you have so many media members doing these for these folks because they're just not, unfortunately, allowed to come up here because of the dangerous situation. we are still under evacuation orders and warnings and then a do not drink notice we can't drink the water here in this area. so we have a lot of people ways away on the ground looking for answers, and we're hoping to get them to them. but it's just a lot of unanswered questions. unfortunately for those folks who have been ordered to evacuate. >> yeah, still a long way to go for people who are desperate to get back to their homes and see see what they can find. sarah alegre reporting live for us in pacific palisades. sarah, thank you for the update. we appreciate it. >> let's shift gears now to our weather here in the bay area. a live look from our roof cam towards san francisco over the oakland estuary. as that sun starts to set with some of those clouds in the sky. ktvu meteorologist rosemary oroczo is back with us. a look at the conditions outside. rosemary a

cheese because that's the most expensive item for a pizzeria. >> in addition to labor, it really drives a lot of their food costs. about 80% of their food costs is in the cheese that tops the pizza. so getting it right helps them, you know, maintain their bottom line. okay. >> and then after the pizza has the right amount of toppings, it goes into the oven, it goes into the oven. >> you can see a pizza coming out of the oven right now three minutes and 45 seconds is the bake time of the pizza. >> and how many of these can be made in an hour, for instance? >> so these ovens will do about 30 pizzas an hour. so this is going to be about 90 pizzas an hour and a pop up pizza shop set up right in the heart of new york city at the jacob javits center. >> i'm lauren simonetti, fox business. >> next at five, it's a race against time in southern california as firefighters brace for another extremely dangerous
