The #HughesFire in Los Angeles County has burned >10,000 acres and is now 98% contained, but the risk isn’t over.

Dry conditions persist, and Spire’s Soil Moisture Insights show how dry the soil is compared to the 30-year average. Gusty winds in the fire area could fuel flare-ups.
A CalFire map shows the location and latest statistics of the Hughes Fire, burning to the north of Santa Clarita in Castaic, California. An animation of the Spire High-Resolution Forecast indicates wind gusts will top 35 mph near the Hughes Fire burning north of Santa Clarita, California, in the coming days. An animation of Soil Moisture Insights Anomalies shows drier-than-average soil moisture conditions across Southern California, indicating the abundance of dry fuels.
