that ash isn't wood, that ash is someone's roof, that ash is someone's car. that ash is that ash is toxic. it really in a very tangible way. what are the long term risks here? >> well, there are there are several long term risks to people's health across the board. and so what we are really encouraging folks to do at this time is take the steps to avoid those risks. and those include things like trying to stay indoors as much as possible. if you must be outdoors, then you must really try to wear an n95 or p100 mask. these masks filter out those particles that get lodged into the body. but there are other ways in which the ash and the and these toxic chemicals that you're describing can get into the body, and that's through water. and so there are a number of water advisories from water districts to angelenos right now. these include things like boil notices, because when there's a fire and a depressurized system for the for the water and their sewage, there's risks of bacteria causing problems. and so there are boil notices, but there's an even greater proble

you can see some of the charred wood out here, some of the ashes. and this was a garage door of a family home here. and it will never look the same. you know, we spent some time driving up and down pch today, and it really doesn't matter if it was a multi-million dollar home, a mobile home park, doesn't matter how famous or wealthy the homeowner was. this fire spared no one. now, one of the things i can say that is a bit of a relief for the crews out here is that we are seeing more and more firefighters come up and down pch. this place has been very busy tonight. you're seeing firefighters constantly, police officers, all sorts of personnel. we've seen them stop by different homes. when they see little spot fires, they put them out. then they move on to the next one. that is the good news. the bad news is we are learning at least two people were killed in this fire in the palisades fire in just down the street from where we're standing. there was an investigation today after investigators found some human remains. they're trying to determine if they
