Firefighters scrambled to corral a fast-moving wildfire in the Los Angeles hillsides dotted with celebrity homes as a potentially life-threatening, destructive windstorm hit Southern California.
The Palisades Fire swiftly consumed more than 200 acres of dry brush and sent up a huge plume of smoke visible across the city.
Actor Steve Guttenberg, who lives in the Pacific Palisades, urged people to leave their keys behind so he can move their cars out of the way for firetrucks.
Forecasters warned the worst may be yet to come with the windstorm predicted to last for days, producing isolated gusts that could top 100 mph in mountains and foothills.
