Evacuations were underway as a massive wildfire raged out of control and engulfed homes in Pacific Palisades, California, on Tuesday.

Several massive fires are currently burning in Los Angeles County: Pacific Palisades, Eaton, Bert, Sylmar, Tamarack, King.

Thousands have evacuated and the fire has grown to more than 2,900 acres, according to The Los Angeles Times.

Gusty Santa Ana winds sent embers flying everywhere making it nearly impossible for firefighters to contain the blaze.

According to Accuweather, wind gusts will exceed 85 miles per hour overnight.

Nursing home patients in Pasadena were being raced across roadways as the fire quickly spread due to gusty winds.
