Parched Southern California is facing the threat of dangerous winds on Wednesday, with the possibility of some much-needed rain over the weekend. This rain could potentially help in preventing further deadly wildfires, although it also brings the risk of challenges such as toxic ash runoff.
Los Angeles officials are gearing up for the potential rain, as a small number of residents have been allowed to return to areas like Pacific Palisades and Altadena. Firefighters have been quick to control any small blazes that have erupted.
