Additionally, evacuation warnings have been issued for 19 additional areas, in addition to mandatory evacuations that have been issued for 15 zones. For the convenience of residents who have been displaced, an evacuation center has been established at the Westwood Recreation Center.

There are a number of roads that are closed, including the Pacific Coast Highway. In an effort to bring the fire under control, firefighters from CAL FIRE and local departments are currently working. Steve Guttenberg, an actor, has joined the efforts to assist with evacuations and has urged residents to clear roads for emergency vehicles when they are needed.
