California fires live updates: At least 10 fire-related deaths, medical examiner says

Vice President Kamala Harris' Los Angeles neighborhood is under an evacuation order, according to her office.

No one was in the home at the time, Ernie Apreza, a spokesperson for her office, said.

"She and the Second Gentleman are praying for the safety of their fellow Californians, the heroic first responders, and Secret Service personnel," Apreza said on X.

Harris and her husband, Doug Emhoff, own a home in Brentwood, which Emhoff purchased in 2012 for $2.7 million.

Actor Steve Guttenberg told "GMA3" he's been moving abandoned vehicles to allow fire trucks in as the fire ravages the Pacific Palisades.

"It's like a parking lot," Guttenberg said. "When people abandon their cars, you've got to leave your keys in there, so guys like me can move them."

Guttenberg said he's been staying at a friend's house, where they have no electricity but is otherwise "doing OK."

"It's just the biggest fire I've ever seen in my life," Guttenberg said. "I got a lot of smoke in my lungs."

While in the Palisades on Tuesday, he said it looked like there was a "volcano" on the sides of the hills.

"Now I never think I'm going to die, but this is one of those moments where I said, 'Oh man, these could be the place I'm going to go,'" he said.

An air quality alert has been issued for the Santa Monica Mountains, San Gabriel Valley and the Los Angeles County coastal areas due to increased fine particle pollution from wildfire smoke.

The alert will remain in effect until 5 p.m. PST.

"Particles in wildfire smoke can get deep into the lungs and cause serious health problems such as heart attacks, strokes, asthma attacks, and difficulty breathing. Everyone can be affected, but people with lung or heart disease, older adults, people who are pregnant, children, and those who spend a lot of time outdoors are at greater risk," according to the South Coast Air Quality Management District.

Los Angeles County and all 29 fire departments in the county "are not prepared for this type of widespread disaster," despite officials prepositioning resources from northern California, according to LA County Fire Department Chief Anthony Marrone.

"There are not enough firefighters in LA County to address four separate fires of this magnitude," Marrone said.

"The LA County Fire Department was prepared for one or two major brush fires, but not four -- especially given the sustained winds and low humidities. Like our director of emergency management said, this is not a normal red flag alert," Marrone said.
