As thousands of firefighters make progress battling the major Los Angeles wildfires, more dangerous wind is in the forecast.  There could be hurricane-force gusts in some fire areas by Tuesday morning.  The National Weather Service is issuing a rare “particularly dangerous situation red flag warning.”  As of 12:30 p-m Monday, the Eaton Fire in Altadena is up to 14-thousand acres with 33-percent containment.  The Palisades Fire is just under 24-thousand acres in size.  It is now 14-percent contained.
