L.A. County residents who have evacuated: do NOT return home.
Dangerous conditions still exist in neighborhoods affected by the #WoolseyFire.
Be patient. Officials will let you know when evacuation orders have been lifted.

Tragically, two fatalities have occurred. Keep your families safe today.

While flames from the Woolsey Fire are currently visible from campus, multiple fire department strike teams are present with air and ground support. All students, faculty, and staff are safe at shelter-in-place relocation sites.
A lot of you are wondering about your homes tonight. Firefighters are doing everything they can to salvage your neighborhoods and your belongings. I’ll do my best to get you the information we do have—not many specific house numbers as of now.
Before you travel tonight, check your roads if you live in the surrounding areas of the #WoolseyFire.
Traveling east/west through Ventura County? Use SR 126 though Fillmore & Santa Paula - or SR 118. US 101 CLOSED, both directions in Agoura Hills. #WoolseyFire @CaltransDist7

93 Flintlock engulfed in flames but firefighters managed to save the owner’s car, Harley and ATV. A small victory on an otherwise hellish evening.

Winds still causing problems in #BellCanyon... we’ll take a look at fire damage at 10!
