The Santa Anas are expected to be most powerful Monday night into Tuesday. Fire services across the region say they are ready.

The Santa Ana winds are dry, powerful winds that blow down the mountains toward the Southern California coast. The region sees about 10 Santa Ana wind events a year on average, typically occurring from fall into January. When conditions are dry, as they are right now, these winds can become a severe fire hazard.

Critical fire conditions are expected to continue through Friday. But rain could be on the way this weekend. Here's what to know.

California Governor Gavin Newsom has deployed fire engines, water-dropping aircraft and hand crews across the region—to enable a rapid response if a new fire does break out, according to The Associated Press.

With the Palisades and Eaton Fires still not fully contained, another dangerous Santa Ana wind event is forecast in Los Angeles for Monday-Thursday.

Southern California will continue to face "dangerous fire weather conditions" including strong Santa Ana winds and extremely low humidity through later this week, forecasters said Tuesday.

The National Weather Service issued a "particularly dangerous situation" alert for Los Angeles and Ventura counties as another dangerous wind event is expected this week.

Santa Ana winds return to Southern California from Monday to Tuesday, once again raising fire danger concerns.

Forecasters say a "moderate to strong'' Santa Ana wind event is expected, with isolated gusts of 80 to 100 mph expected in most wind-prone mountain locations, such as the San Gabriel, western Santa Monica and Santa Susana Mountains, according to the NWS.

More Santa Ana winds blew into Southern California Monday, again raising wildfire danger even as crews continued their efforts to fully contain a pair of massive blazes that erupted amid erratic winds earlier this month,

There is a 10% to 20% chance of flash flooding and landslides in some recently burned areas of Los Angeles County, forecasters say, including the Palisades and Eaton fire areas.

The Philippine Consulate in Los Angeles has issued an advisory warning Filipinos in LA about the extreme fire risk in the region.
