Current Situation
Situation Summary
Damage inspection teams continue to update interactive maps for local residents affected by the Bridge Fire. For San Bernardino County visit: https://prepare.sbcounty.gov/bridge-fire/. For Los Angeles County visit: https://recovery.lacounty.gov/bridgefire/.
Governor Gavin Newsom has announced a Fire Management Assistance Grant (FMAG) from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to help ensure the availability of vital resources to Los Angeles and San Bernardino counties.
WEATHER: The area will see a warming and drying trend as a high-pressure system from the Pacific Ocean moves in. The marine layer will dissipate by early to mid-week, and relative humidities will drop, leading to elevated fire danger. Then warmer, drier weather is expected to last through the end of the month.
