The Sandy Fire has prompted the evacuation of over 10,000 households, with an additional 3,500 under evacuation warnings. Schools in the Simi Valley district are closed, and the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library has been evacuated. While some evacuation orders have been lifted, the fire remains uncontained, posing a continued threat to nearby communities, including Thousand Oaks and the Santa Monica Mountains. PG&E has preemptively shut off power to approximately 20,000 homes and businesses to mitigate fire risks. The combination of strong winds and low humidity could exacerbate fire spread, endangering lives, property, and critical infrastructure.
