24 people are now confirmed dead following wildfires in California.
More than 14,000 firefighters continue to battle a number of blazes in the Los Angeles area.

Kildare woman Tiffany Stanley, who moved to LA 12 years ago to pursue a modelling career, said looting is a big problem at the moment.
She said people impacted by fires are also dealing with American insurance companies who have cancelled a lot of house insurance so "some people will never get their money back".
Tiffany is one of thousands of people evacuated from her home in the Hollywood Hills.
