California Wildfires and Severe Coastal Erosion

Jeff Bliss discusses red flag warnings across Southern California triggered by low humidity, dry vegetation, and fierce Santa Ana winds driving wildfires like the Bryson fire in Malibu. He addresses delayed repairs on the empty Pacific Palisades reservoir and rising political tension in the Los Angeles mayoral race between Nithya Raman and Karen Bass. Additionally, Bliss details high ocean swells, king tides, and Kelvin waves destroying coastal infrastructure and beachfront homes near San Clemente. (1)
