As firefighters in Los Angeles made progress on Sunday containing wildfires that have destroyed much of the Pacific Palisades and Altadena neighborhoods, forecasters warned that fire weather is likely to return on Monday.
Donald Trump told NBC news he plans to travel to California to inspect the damage after his inauguration, “probably, at the end of the week”. California governor Gavin Newsom had initially invited the president-elect to visit more than a week ago, even as Trump attacked him on social media and spread misinformation about the state’s Democratic leadership response to the fires.
On Saturday, Newsom announced that five major banks – Bank of America, Citi, JPMorgan Chase, US Bank and Wells Fargo – have agreed to provide mortgage relief of up to three months of forbearance for homes in affected areas.
The Palisades fire was 52% contained as of 7am on Sunday morning, with 23,713 acres burned, 4,996 structures destroyed and 707 damaged, with these totals still expected to climb.
