The massive Palisades Fire broke out in Los Angeles on Tuesday afternoon, prompting mandatory evacuations affecting tens of thousands of people and highway closures. Later Tuesday, the Eaton Fire broke out in the foothills of Pasadena on the other side of Los Angeles County.

Fire officials say crews are still battling fires in the Pacific Palisades, as well as the Hurst Fire, near San Fernando, and the Eaton fire near Pasadena. Meanwhile, new fires have sprung up in the Hollywood Hills and to the north near Acton.

Two wildfires still burning in Los Angeles have torched more urban area than any other fire in the state since at least the mid-1980s
