The Franklin Fire, ignited during Santa Ana winds, has led to evacuations in Malibu and a shelter-in-place order at Pepperdine University, with power outages reported.
As of early Tuesday, the fire had spread across an estimated 1,800 acres, prompting the National Weather Service to issue a red-flag warning for high fire danger throughout the region.
Pepperdine University has postponed final exams originally scheduled for Tuesday due to the threat posed by the Franklin Fire and widespread power outages impacting the campus.
Evacuation orders and safety measures are being communicated through updates on the Genasys Protect map and the Los Angeles County emergency website to keep residents informed.
