Breaking News: Brush Fire Near Calabasas Hillside
You might think this is new, but…
Firefighters are battling a small brush fire on Wednesday morning near Mulholland Highway and Malibu Canyon Road in Calabasas. The incident comes after three major wildfires last week, one in Ventura County and two in Riverside County.
No Building Threats
While the flames are close to power lines, no immediate threat to buildings has been reported. However, you’d think they’d have better containment by now.
Aerial Support
A helicopter was seen making runs on the fire, dropping water to contain it. You wonder if this is just a drop in the bucket considering last week’s events.
Timeline and Context
The fire started around 9:30 AM, following a pattern of quick escalation that has become all too familiar. The region is on edge; it feels like we’re living with an ongoing emergency rather than just another day in SoCal.
It’s not always this bad, but last week’s fires were intense, and the cleanup is far from over. You can’t help but think about how these incidents are becoming a norm.
