A brief lull in Santa Anas overnight allowed firefighters to increase containment of the blaze to 45% as of Saturday morning.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">After the cooldown at the start of the week, forecasters are predicting a chance of rain beginning Wednesday night and into Thursday morning.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ktla.com\/los-angeles-weather\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Click here;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Click here&quot;}\" class=\"link \">Click here<\/a> to view the most up-to-date forecast for your Southern California community.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Copyright 2026 Nexstar Media, Inc.
