Rapid wind gusts, decreased air quality and canceled classes faced members of the Westwood community as fires tore through Los Angeles this week.

As of 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Westwood and the UCLA campus are not under an evacuation warning or order. Although some students received notifications around 4 p.m. Thursday, those notifications were sent in error.

Additionally, 29,053 total acres have burned and more than 10,000 structures have been destroyed, according to Cal Fire. At least 130,000 people are under evacuation, and more than 20 arrests have been made for looting.
