President Trump surveyed destruction in Pacific Palisades by air and on foot during his visit to Los Angeles County on Friday afternoon, but he did not visit the ravaged community of Altadena.

The president was greeted by Gov. Newsom in L.A. Friday afternoon for a brief trip where he announced that the state will receive full federal backing to rebuild.

Palisades Fire initially started 10:30 a.m. Jan. 7 in Los Angeles County. It has burned 23,448 acres after being active for 16 days. A crew of 2,420 firefighters has been working on site and they managed to contain 75% of the fire by Thursday evening. The blaze's cause remains under investigation.

The two largest fires, the Palisades Fire in Pacific Palisades and the Eaton Fire near Pasadena, remain active. One of the latest, the Hughes Fire in the Castaic area, has prompted evacuation orders for tens of thousands of people.

The fires are still not fully contained and have killed 28 people and damaged or destroyed nearly 16,000 structures.

The National Weather Service issued a flood watch effective from 4 p.m. Sunday to 4 p.m. Monday for areas in or near burn scars created by the Palisades Fire, Eaton Fire, Hughes Fire and Bridge Fire, the latter blaze of which burned 56,000 acres last fall.

California firefighters could make more headway in containing three major wildfires burning in and around Los Angeles on Friday, as the latest round of blistering winds calm and the area's first rainfall in months arrives over the weekend.

Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag are suing the city of Los Angeles and the Department of Water and Power, alleging that the agencies' management of the water supply directly caused damage to their home in the Pacific Palisades Fire.
