LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- At least 25 people are believed to be dead and more than a dozen others remain unaccounted for as multiple wildfires, fueled by severe drought conditions and strong Santa Ana winds, continue to rage across Southern California, leaving fire crews scrambling to contain the historic destruction.
Here are all the current wildfires burning in Southern California at a glance.
We're getting a look at just how close the Eaton Fire came to vital communications towers at Mount Wilson.
A photo posted on X shows how the fire came within mere feet from the lifesaving communications equipment last Thursday.
Thanks to prior fuel treatment by the Angeles National Forest and the work of firefighters, the equipment was not damaged.
Firefighters continue to monitor and protect the area.
The death toll from the wildfires in Los Angeles County has climbed to 25 people, according to the L.A. County Medical Examiner.
The medical examiner issued a correction just hours after it had announced a 25th victim. In its update, the office explained that what it had counted as an additional death from the Eaton Fire was determined to be non-human remains.
Shortly after, the medical examiner reported an additional death from the Palisades Fire, bringing the total back to 25.
The medical examiner says 16 deaths are linked to the Eaton Fire and nine are linked to the Palisades Fire.

FEMA opened two Disaster Recovery Centers on Tuesday to help people who experienced "damage to their primary home, personal property loss or have disaster-caused emergency needs related to the wildfires." FEMA said people will get help with applying for assistance, speak to representatives, get updates on their FEMA application and learn about the appeals process.
The centers are located at:
"We've already had 40,000 people register, I think 8,000 people already received that $770. We put $8 million out already," Region 9 FEMA Administrator Robert J. Fenton, Jr. said.
An Altadena family that lost their home in the Eaton Fire are among the many wildfire victims who say they have been victimized by illegal price gouging.
The Skidmore family quickly found refuge at an AirBNB in Pasadena this week after they were displaced by the Eaton Fire. They lost everything.
"My kids are great kids and they've grown up in that house and that was their place and they've lost their place," Warren Skidmore said. "They've lost their little havens they've made for themselves,"
While trying to find more permanent, long-term housing, they noticed the price of their temporary home Airbnb went up 43.2% for the following week. That would be illegal price gouging.
Under California law, during an emergency, businesses are only allowed to increase prices by up to 10 percent.
