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 warnings come as firefighters continue to battle two major blazes in the Los Angeles area, the Palisades and Eaton fires.

No more rainfall is expected in the area until possibly late in the first week of February, but Santa Ana winds aren't in forecast either.

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.

The Santa Ana winds fanning wildfires that have killed at least 25 people in Southern California and destroyed more than 10,000 houses, businesses and other structures in Greater Los Angeles are flaring up again.

More Santa Ana winds are expected in California, which is still reeling from the wildfires in Los Angeles County. As the winds intensify, experts are also warning of hidden health risks in the air. Reporter Sarah Alegre has more.

The Santa Ana winds are dry, powerful winds that blow down the mountains toward the Southern California coast. The region sees about 10 Santa Ana wind events a year on average, typically occurring from fall into January. When conditions are dry, as they are right now, these winds can become a severe fire hazard.

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

Less than a week after a massive wildfire shut down California's Interstate 5, the traffic artery was closed again due to heavy snow, authorities said.

The Palisades and Eaton wildfires also continue burning in the Los Angeles area, leaving parts of Southern California with devastating fire damage.
