A man and woman from Malibu visited the smoldering remains of their house after the Palisades Fire burned dozens of homes along the Pacific Coast Highway.
MALIBU, Calif. – A man and woman returned to what remained of their home in Malibu on Sunday, after the Palisades wildfire burned it and several other homes to the ground.
Video showed the couple looking out over the ruins of their home.
“It’s still smoldering,” the man said.
“Are you OK?” asked Annestacia Komarovsk, who recorded the video.
“Yes,” the man said.
The Palisades Fire has burned more than 23,700 acres in Southern California since Tuesday. Hundreds of homes along the Pacific Coast Highway were destroyed. It’s estimated more than 1,100 buildings have been destroyed in the fire.
FOX News Correspondent Connor Hansen reports from Pacific Palisades, California where the winds are beginning to return after devastating fires destroyed whole neighborhoods. The fire area is under a Particularly Dangerous Situation fire weather warning through Tuesday.
Komarovsk asked them how they could recognize what was left. The man and woman point out features that remain of their home and neighborhood. The man pointed out a steel railing that was visible on top of the burned debris.
“I’m sorry for your home,” a man told the couple.
The camera pans back over the wreckage, showing concrete pillars and metal bars, the only things left standing.
Two other wildfires, the Eaton and Hurst fires, continue to burn in Los Angeles.
At least two dozen people are confirmed dead in the wildfires, the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner reported Sunday.
A Fire Weather Warning is in effect for much of the area impacted by the fires through Wednesday. Dry conditions, low humidity and the return of Santa Ana winds could lead to explosive wildfire growth this week.
