"Just spoke to my dad - he tried to save my brother's house but the wind is so strong there was nothing he could do. Even the fire station in the palisades has burned down. The Pacific Palisades is completely on fire. No one is there."
Stephanie, who was in London at the time of the disaster, wrote: "My parents evacuated safely and are watching the fire rage towards their house on security cameras. I don't even want to look at mine as my dad told me the Market down the street from my house is on fire."
