Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors Chair Kathryn Barger described the wildfires as a "dynamic situation" during a Wednesday press conference.
"Heed the advice of first responders," she said. "When they ask you to evacuate, evacuate. This is not a drill, this is happening in real-time."
Tens of thousands of people have been instructed to evacuate because of the fires, Fox News Digital reported.

Numerous homes and other structures have been caught up in the ongoing blazes.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom said Wednesday that the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) was giving the state a fire management assistant grant to "help ensure the availability of vital resources" to fight the Hurst Fire.
Such grants have also been authorized for the Palisades and Eaton fires.
