California has just experienced one of its worst wildfire seasons in years, despite the Golden State's ample resources to combat the blazes once they spark.

With parts of Los Angeles County still smoldering from wildfires, the expected rain this weekend would seem like a welcome relief. But how the rain falls could make the difference between a disaster respite or a disaster repeat.

Strong Santa Ana winds have fueled multiple wildfires across Southern California, forcing thousands of residents to flee from their homes.

The drone, which authorities say was flying in restricted airspace on Jan. 9, put a fist-sized hole in the wing of a Super Scooper — a massive fixed-wing plane that can drop large amounts of water onto a fast-moving fire.

The Santa Ana winds tend to cause the same corridors to burn over and over again. Experts say the region needs to adapt.

When wildfires turn into urban firestorms like the conflagrations in LA, it's often these smoldering bits of debris that cause the most widespread destruction.

For the last few weeks, a team of investigators from the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives has worked out of a command post near a popular hiking trail, where officials believe the Palisades fire began around 10:30 a.

Twenty-eight people have died across the Los Angeles area. Officials have said the true death toll isn’t known as the fires continue to burn.

The recent wildfires in California were worsened by climate change, a report found. The study, released Tuesday by World Weather Attribution, found that human-caused climate change increased the

A quick scientific study finds that human-caused climate change increased the likelihood and intensity of the hot, dry and windy conditions that fanned the flames of the recent devastating Southern California wildfires.

A study from the U.S. Geological Survey found the ecosystems on California's public lands are losing the carbon they've locked up from the atmosphere faster than any other state, driven in large part by wildfires.
