Southern California will continue to face "dangerous fire weather conditions" including strong Santa Ana winds and extremely low humidity through later this week, forecasters said Tuesday.

As winds across the Southern California area are calmer than their peak and firefighters are making progress, the threat to the fire-weary region remains with Santa Ana winds expected to continue in the coming days.

Forecasters in Southern California expect to issue a 'particularly dangerous situation' red flag warning for the coming week as the Santa Ana wind forecast worsens.

With the Palisades and Eaton Fires still not fully contained, another dangerous Santa Ana wind event is forecast in Los Angeles for Monday-Thursday.

Meteorologists said there was a chance the winds would be as severe as those that fueled the Palisades and Eaton fires, but that different locations would likely be affected.

The Sepulveda fire was the latest blaze in a nerve-racking week as Southern California headed into a fourth consecutive day of red flag fire weather warnings.

Thanks to the Israeli Consulate and other groups, a team of firefighting experts from Israel flew in last week and immediately joined local forces.

Even as Santa Ana winds continued to blast parts of the Southland, threatening to spark new fires or re-ignite old ones, local authorities turned their attention Wednesday to the possibility of rain hitting the area this weekend and potentially triggering mud or debris flows in recent burn areas.

As bands of rain move into Southern California, residents in the burn scar areas are bracing for possible mudslides and land movements.

A mudslide blocked part of Topanga Canyon Boulevard and other roads Monday morning after a day of rainfall in the Palisades Fire burn area.

On Wednesday, Jan. 22, Los Angeles City and County officials provided an update on current wildfire conditions as well as what to expect ahead of an incoming storm.

Dozens of people are believed to have died in the Palisades and Eaton fires, which have burned down whole swaths of communities
