The National Weather Service has issued a high wind warning for Monday, with gusts up to 65 mph forecast for parts of central California that could cause further fire spread.

A vegetation fire in California rapidly spread beyond 1,500 acres on Monday. Firefighters stopped its spread as of Monday evening, according to Cal Fire.

Efforts to battle the 1,250-acre fire in eastern California were complicated by strong winds, which were expected to continue through Monday.

After the discovery, at least 18 people are confirmed to have died in the Eaton fire that ripped through Altadena and Pasadena in January. At least 12 people died in the Palisades fire in the Pacific Palisades area and Santa Monica Mountains the same week.

The death toll from the devastating wildfires that tore through Los Angeles County earlier this year has climbed to 30 after human remains were discovered in Altadena, officials confirmed.

A new death in connection with January’s wildfires has been confirmed, raising the death toll to 30, the County of Los Angeles Department of Medical Examiner’s office said on Wednesday.
