Intro
This chapter details the rapid escalation of the Palisades Fire, which grew from 10 acres to over 2,900 acres in just one day due to fierce Santa Ana winds. It explores the evacuation struggles in Malibu and Pasadena, the destruction of properties, the impact on firefighting resources, and the historical implications of what could be the most costly wildfire in U.S. history.
