But I wish I was the guy  driving this bulldozer

Quote from @Matthew Paul:

Just saw the news , over 1000 structures destroyed and possibly 28,000 in danger . 

 12,000 destroyed as of this am. 16 Dead. So sad......

 This very tragic and sad. As of 2 hours ago (1:00pm PST), there were a total of 7 fires:

Pacific Palisades: over 27,000 acres burned, contained 11%

Eaton Fire: over 14,000 acres burned, above Altadena, 27% contained

Hurst Fire: 800 acres, San Fernando Valley, 89% contained

These fires are contained:

Lidia Fire: in Antelope Valley north of LA

Kenneth Fire: west San Fernando Valley, they suspect this one to be arson, suspect arrested (saw on one news report)

Sunset Fire: Runyon Canyon near Hollywood Hills

Woodley Fire: in Sepulveda Basin and San Fernando Valley

@Becca F.: Any idea how far south the potential for Santa Ana or similar winds goes?

 I'm not sure. Google says it affects L.A., Ventura county and Santa Barbara. I've heard people refer to Santa Ana winds with the Bay Area but I wouldn't think it goes this far up north. I'm not a climate or weather expert though. 

I'm going to do new post referencing insurance - this has been a big topic amongst my California friends.
