Authorities in Los Angeles, California have ordered evacuations of nearly 200,000 residents as the rampaging Skirball Fire began to consume homes and shut down part of Interstate 405, one of the busiest freeways in the US.

The fast-moving brush fire started around 5am local time on Wednesday near the Getty Center. At 7:30am, authorities ordered residents living south of Mulholland Drive, east of the 405, north of Sunset Boulevard, and west of Roscomare Road to evacuate their homes.

Residents living west of I-405 should also brace for evacuations, in case flames jump the freeway, officials said. The fire has now at least four burned homes in the upscale neighborhoods of Bel Air and Brentwood, KTLA reported.
High winds reaching 80 mph (129 km/h) are are expected to exacerbate the fires.
Authorities have opened 16 evacuation centers throughout the Los Angeles area.
Commuters have uploaded videos and photos showing apocalyptic scenes as the fire rages next to the 405.

“Not the typical morning commute…” a Los Angeles investment banker commented.
“Today was scariest morning commute of my life,” tweeted musician Rick Patrick. “The scariest part was the heat hitting my car. It felt like driving into the sun.”
The Thomas, Creek and Rye Fires continue to wreaking havoc in Southern California, as authorities and firefighters scramble to contain the rapidly moving blazes.

The Thomas Fire, which started at around 6:30pm Monday, is considered a wildfire, and was the first of the three to ignite. Located 60 miles (97km) northwest of Los Angeles in Ventura County, that fire spread from 500 acres Monday night to 50,000 acres the following morning.

The Creek Fire was the second blaze to erupt. The wildfire started at 4am Tuesday and rapidly spread in the foothills of the Angeles National Forest, located above the neighborhood of Sylmar in the San Fernando Valley. It has destroyed 11 homes and injured two firefighters, KTLA reported.

A fast-moving two-alarm brush fire, dubbed the Rye Fire, led to the closure of a portion of the Interstate 5 highway. The fire is burning in Santa Clarita, about 30 miles (48km) north of Los Angeles, according to KABC.
