Strong Santa Ana winds pushed a wildfire across critically dry terrain in the Bonsall area early Tuesday, charring more than 80 acres and forcing the evacuation of homes in the path of the fire, officials said.

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

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

Santa Ana winds continue to ravage Southern California, posing critical fire concerns across the region. The extremely gusty winds have instigated new fires, known as the Hughes and Sepulveda fires, which have rapidly spread near Los Angeles.

The Santa Ana winds fanning wildfires that have killed at least 25 people in Southern California and destroyed more than 10,000 houses, businesses and other structures in Greater Los Angeles are flaring up again.

A rare Particularly Dangerous Situation warning has been issued for Southern California as a powerful and potentially damaging Santa Ana wind event​ is expected.

Millions of California residents were placed under a red flag warning through Thursday amid threats of further fires with looming winds in the forecast, according to multiple reports.

Fire crews are still battling multiple wildfires across Southern California, including the Hughes Fire which broke out Wednesday and has already torched more than 10,000 acres and forced tens of thousands of evacuations in north Los Angeles County.
