STORYLINE:
Aerial drone footage shows the burnt landscape of Altadena, California after fire crews were able to contain a big portion of the Eaton Fire, one of several wildfires that displaced Los Angeles County residents in January.

Winds eased somewhat Tuesday afternoon after peaking at 60 mph (96 kph) in many areas, but gusty conditions were expected to return the next two days.

Red flag warnings for critical fire risk were extended through 8 p.m. Thursday in LA and Ventura counties.

The low humidity, bone-dry vegetation and strong winds come as firefighters continue battling the Palisades and Eaton fires, which have killed at least 28 people and destroyed more than 14,000 structures since they broke out Jan. 7.

Containment of the Palisades Fire reached 61%, and the Eaton Fire was at 87%.
