James Woods leaves his home as it faces danger from the Los Angeles wildfire.
The Palisades Fire, which began at 11 am, is estimated to be 200 acres in size, as stated by the Los Angeles Fire Department.
We were fortunate to have the LA fire and police departments performing their duties exceptionally well," Woods wrote. "We are now safe and have evacuated. Our neighborhood contains several elementary schools, and there was a massive community effort to ensure the safe evacuation of the children.
"Can not speak more highly of the LA fire and LAPD."
Planet Chronicle Digital contacted Woods' representative for comment.
"Preparing to evacuate from my driveway, Woods stated in a clip shared on X. 'We've got a lot of planes flying overhead, dropping water, but…'"
A video by Woods showed flames on a hillside near a home. It's uncertain if the property in the video was damaged by the fire.
In another post, he wrote about the heavy smoke covering the sky and hoped everyone would get out safely.
A "life-threatening, destructive, widespread windstorm" is expected Tuesday afternoon through Wednesday morning, and an extreme wildfire threat covers much of Southern California through Wednesday, according to Los Angeles forecasters at the National Weather Service.
