Home Care In Los Angeles, CA

Home Care Los Angeles, CA

They say that your golden years are the best years of your life. For most older Americans, that's how it should be - a time to relax, reflect, and live life in a familiar place. After all, senior citizens in the U.S. have worked tirelessly to build a better economy, serve their communities, and raise families.

However, as seniors grow older, completing daily tasks like showering and enjoying activities such as visiting the historic Bradbury Building gets harder without someone by their side. Unfortunately, many older Americans aren't able to rely on their adult children for help. The reality in today's world is that family members do not have the skills or time to dedicate to caring for their parents. That's where Always Best Care Senior Services comes in.

Our in-home care services are for people who prefer to stay at home as they grow older but need ongoing care that family or friends cannot provide. More and more older adults prefer to live far away from long-term, institutionalized facilities and closer to the place where they feel most comfortable - their home. Home care in Los Angeles, CA is a safe, effective way to give your loved ones the care they need when they need it the most.

The Always Best Care Difference

Since 1996, Always Best Care has provided non-medical in-home care for seniors to help them maintain a healthy lifestyle as they get older. We are proud to have helped more than 25,000 seniors maintain higher levels of dignity and respect. We focus on providing seniors with the highest level of in-home care available so that they may live happily and independently.

Unlike some senior care companies, we genuinely want to be included in our clients' lives. We believe that personalized care is always the better option over a "one size fits all" approach. To make sure our senior clients receive the best care possible, we pair them with compassionate caregivers who understand their unique needs. That way, they may provide care accordingly without compromising their wellbeing.

The Always Best Care difference lies in life's little moments - where compassionate care and trustworthy experience come together to help seniors live a fruitful, healthy life. Whether you are an aging adult that can't quite keep up with life's daily tasks or the child of a senior who needs regular in-home services, Always Best Care is here to help.

TESTIMONIALS

“I highly recommend Always Best Care for every aspect from the ones seeking care for a loved one or themselves, all the way to the ones seeking an opportunity to care for a senior. I personally worked for ABC, and throughout my years with them I had the pleasure of interacting with the seniors as well as with the amazing caregivers. From the stories of a much more simpler time in the elders life to the reasons from a caregiver wanting to truly care for the seniors. (Most reasons are personal to them that have impacted their life and heart). This is truly a caring company with exceptional professional staff. It's hard to find a company that demonstrates both of those traits....”

“I cannot say enough good things about Always Best Care in the South Bay. I was lucky to be referred to ABC when my Father suddenly needed in-home care several years ago and I hired ABC again a few months ago when my friend needed in-home care. The learning curve is steep when a family member is no longer independent. Having reliable, caring and professional caregivers is invaluable in getting through these challenges. Hiring the caregivers from ABC allowed me to be the "daughter" again. I absolutely could not have cared for my beloved Father or my dear friend without ABC by my side!”

“Always Best Care agency has been wonderful to work with. The caregivers they have provided to stay with my dear friend, who has dementia, have been outstanding. My husband, an MD, and I, an RN, have rather high standards and have found all of the caregivers to be professional, caring and extremely reliable (24/7 care in this case) They go above and beyond expectations. I have felt safe with the caregivers,as they are also down-to-earth; caring people. Dr. David Hart is the main point person in this family-run agency and he is not only a very caring person, he is extremely intelligent in his communication, yet very down-to earth at the same time. He is responsive to any issues that arise immediately…not only for the client, but also to his caregivers, who he genuinely cares about. That is perhaps why he attracts and retains such stellar employees, We feel very lucky to have found ABC Senior Care services. Ilene Watson, RN and Dr. Walter Watson,MD, Manhattan Beach, CA”

“Carrie, David, and their team are terrific to work with. Carrie has been a lifesaver by helping us to quickly find a wonderful 24/7 board and care facility for our loved one who is suffering from both advanced dementia and a broken, severe arthritic neck. They have provided very capable temporary care givers to us to help with taking our loved one to doctor's appointments and during the time our loved one was being treated in the hospital. David has thoroughly educated us on all aspects of dementia and counseled the family members to help sort out their emotions during these difficult times. We strongly recommend Always Best Care South Bay to anyone needing advise, help, and services to find care facilities, care givers, and/or counseling.”

“From the moment I first spoke to Mark Wecker at Always Best Care, he was kind, caring and extremely knowledgeable. He made sure to ask all the right questions to help my siblings and me find the perfect place for our father who had very advanced Parkinson's Disease. He took us to places that fit the high quality we were looking for and in our budget range. Mark showed genuine concern for us and my father. And he helped us navigate through a challenging situation. We made a great decision based on his expert advice. Unfortunately, my father passed away before we could bring him to LA. But I will always be grateful for the detailed attention we received from Mark and Always Best Care.”

“My son and I have received family counseling from Dr. Hart for nearly two years. We both suffer from PTSD, among other mental disabilities, and have been seen by a number of therapists over the years. We have found Dr. Hart’s care to be among the most helpful. He is kind, understanding, and patient. Rather than employing long term, traditional psychotherapy or other limited methods exclusively, he uses different approaches to break through a person’s natural resistance. He suggests interpretations of feelings and actions, asks questions that show real insight, and then gives practical and usually appropriate advice that can be accepted or discussed further. He has treated us with respect and even with a non-intrusive, kind of professional affection. We would recommend him to friends and family without hesitation.”

From the beginning to the end the staff were professional and courteous. My dad unfortunately decided to end services because of his stubbornness. Mark was understanding and expressed his concern for my Dad's wellbeing. He didn't push for us to continue services. I would work with ABC again if my father agrees to resume services.

“I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dr. David Hart for your elder-care needs. Dr. Hart is an incredibly knowledgeable and caring person who helped our family beyond measure to provide the best level of care for our mother who has Alzheimer's Disease. We engaged Dr. Hart to 1) conduct his own periodic assessments of our mother; 2) create a forum for our broader family, including our mom, to communicate and ask questions; 3) provide training and resources; and 4) help our family evaluate and implement an interim and long-term care plan for our mother. DR. HART EXCEEDED OUR EXPECTATIONS ON EVERY LEVEL. Prior to meeting Dr. Hart we had received a lot of conflicting information and our broader family was experiencing a very high level of stress and frustration. Thankfully, after engaging with Dr. Hart for several months, our family became knowledgeable, we communicated well with each other, and we just implemented a long-term care plan that addresses all of our mom's needs and one that she really enjoys. DR. HART IS THE BEST AND HE TRULY CARES ABOUT HIS PATIENTS AND THE FAMILIES HE WORKS WITH. Thank you Dr. Hart for all of you have done for our family. Words cannot express our gratitude.”

“My widowed 80-year-old mother who has Alzheimer's disease has been living alone for 3 years. She has been extremely resistant to having caregivers in her home and my brother and I had all but given up. We have been amazed at the progress we've made since enlisting the help of Dr. David Hart at Always Best Care. In a little over a month, Mom has accepted a caregiver and is considering a move to an assisted living facility. Equally important, the support and assistance we have received in making both large and small decisions has been invaluable and a huge relief. I also highly recommend the Caregiving Essentials class taught by Dr. Hart, which covers everything you need to know in a single 3-1/2 hour "bootcamp" session, including brain science, communication tips, and resources. (GPS shoe insert, who knew?!) The class would benefit anyone who has a friend or family member suffering from dementia.”

“Dr. Hart has been of monumental assistance to our family during a very difficult time. We first learned of Dr. David’s practice when mom was first diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). His support groups for families and patients offered comfort and practical advice from others going through the same experience. He provided essential information—facts about dementia and lifestyle changes to slow the process—based on the latest research findings, sparing us the time and frustration of navigating the web and sorting facts from myths. But most important to me has been the emotional support Dr. David has personally provided to my sister and I, and the trusting relationship he established with mom. His professional empathy and experience with human behavior as well as his expertise in the field of geriatrics and cognition combine to provide an array of servicesthat will truly make the difference toward a successful transition for elders and their families.

What is Non-Medical Senior Care in Los Angeles, CA?

lm-check

Home is where the heart is. While that saying can sound a tad cliche, it is especially true for many seniors living in America. When given a choice, older adults most often prefer to grow older at home. An AARP study found that three out of four adults over the age of 50 want to stay in their homes and communities as they age.

lm-check

When you begin to think about why, it makes sense. Home offers a sense of security, comfort, and familiarity.

lm-check

The truth is, as we age, we begin to rely on others for help. When a family is too busy or lives too far away to fulfill this role, in-home senior care is often the best solution. Home care services allow seniors to enjoy personal independence while also receiving trustworthy assistance from a trained caregiver.

lm-check

At Always Best Care, we offer a comprehensive range of home care services to help seniors stay healthy while they get the help they need to remain independent. As your senior loved one gets older, giving them the gift of senior care is one of the best ways to show your love, even if you live far away.

Home Care Los Angeles, CA
Respite Care

Respite Care Services

According to AARP, more than 53 million adults living in the U.S. provide care to someone over 50 years old. Unfortunately, these caregivers experience stress, exhaustion, and even depression. Our respite care services help family caregivers address urgent obligations, spend time with their children, and enjoy nearby activities. Perhaps more importantly, respite care gives family members time to recharge and regroup. Taking personal time to de-stress reduces the risk of caregiver burnout. So, if you've always wanted to eat at the local Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar or visit Hollyhock House, don't feel bad. Doing so is great for both you and your loved one.

At the end of the day, our goal is to become a valuable part of your senior's daily routine. That way, we may help give them the highest quality of life possible. We know that staying at home is important for your loved one, and we are here to help make sure that is possible.

If you have been on the fence about non-medical home care, there has never been a better time than now to give your senior the care, assistance, and companionship they deserve.

Benefits of Home Care in Los Angeles, CA

Always Best Care in-home services are for older adults who prefer to stay at home but need ongoing care that friends and family cannot provide. In-home care is a safe, effective way for seniors to age gracefully in a familiar place and live independent, non-institutionalized lives. The benefits of non-medical home care are numerous. Here are just a few reasons to consider senior care services from Always Best Care:

Always Best Care offers a full array of care options for patients at all levels of health. With our trusted elderly care services, your loved one will receive the level of care necessary for them to enjoy the highest possible quality of life.

Aging in Place: The Preferred Choice for Most Seniors

While it's true that some seniors have complicated medical needs that prevent them from staying at home, aging in place is often the best arrangement for seniors and their families. With a trusted caregiver, seniors have the opportunity to live with a sense of dignity and do so as they see fit - something that is unavailable to many older people today.

In-home care makes it possible for millions of seniors to age in place every year. Rather than moving to a strange nursing home, seniors have the chance to stay at home where they feel the happiest and most comfortable.

Here are just a few of the reasons why older men and women prefer to age at home:

How much does a senior's home truly mean to them?

A study published by the American Society on Aging found that more than half of seniors say their home's emotional value means more than how much their home is worth in monetary value. It stands to reason, then, that a senior's home is where they want to grow old.

With the help of elderly care in Los Angeles, CA, seniors don't have to age in a sterilized care facility. Instead, they can age gracefully in the place they want to be most: their home. In contrast, seniors who move to a long-term care facility must adapt to new environments, new people, and new systems that the facility implements. At this stage in life, this kind of drastic change can be more harmful than helpful.

Institutional care facilities like nursing homes often put large groups of people together to live in one location. On any given day, dozens of staff members and caregivers run in and out of these facilities. Being around so many new people in a relatively small living environment can be dangerous for a seniors' health and wellbeing. When you consider that thousands of seniors passed away in nursing homes during the COVID-19 pandemic, opting for in-home care is often a safer, healthier choice for seniors.

Aging in place has been shown to improve seniors' quality of life, which helps boost physical health and also helps insulate them from viral and bacterial risks found in elderly living facilities.

For many seniors, the ability to live independently with assistance from a caregiver is a priceless option. With in-home care, seniors experience a higher level of independence and freedom - much more so than in other settings like a nursing home. When a senior has the chance to age in place, they get to live life on their own terms, inside the house that they helped make into a home. More independence means more control over their personal lives, too, which leads to increased levels of fulfillment, happiness, and personal gratification. Over time, these positive feelings can manifest into a healthier, longer life.

More independence, a healthier life, and increased comfort are only a few benefits of aging in place. You have to take into consideration the role of cost and convenience. Simply put, it's usually easier and more affordable to help seniors age in place than it is to move them into an institutional care facility. According to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, seniors who age in the comfort of their homes can save thousands of dollars per month.

In-home care services from Always Best Care, for instance, are often less expensive than long-term solutions, which can cost upwards of six figures per year. To make matters worse, many residential care facilities are reluctant to accept long-term care insurance and other types of payment assistance.

With Always Best Care's home care services, seniors and their families have a greater level of control over their care plans. In-home care gives seniors the chance to form a bond with a trusted caregiver and also receive unmatched care that is catered to their needs. In long-term care facilities, seniors and their loved ones have much less control over their care plan and have less of a say in who provides their care.

 Elderly Care Los Angeles, CA

Affordable Care

In-home care is a valuable resource that empowers seniors to age in place on their own terms. However, a big concern for many families and their loved ones is how much in-home care costs. If you're worried that in-home care is too expensive, you may be pleasantly surprised to learn that it is one of the most affordable senior care arrangements available.

Typically, hiring an Always Best Care in-home caregiver for a few hours a week is more affordable than sending your loved one to a long-term care facility. This is true even for seniors with more complex care needs.

At Always Best Care, we will work closely with you and your family to develop a Care Plan that not only meets your care needs, but your budget requirements, too. Once we discover the level of care that you or your senior need, we develop an in-home care plan that you can afford.

In addition to our flexible care options, families should also consider the following resources to help offset potential home care costs:

If your loved one qualifies, Medicaid may help reduce in-home care costs. Review your CA's Medicaid program laws and benefits, and make sure your senior's financial and medical needs meet Medicaid eligibility requirements.
Attendance and aid benefits through military service can cover a portion of the costs associated with in-home care for veterans and their spouses.
Many senior care services like in-home care are included in long-term care insurance options. Research different long-term care solutions to find a plan that provides coverage for senior care.
Home care can be included as part of a senior's private insurance plan. Read over your loved one's insurance policy carefully or speak with their insurance provider to determine if in-home care is covered.
Depending on the life insurance plan, you may be able to apply your policy toward long-term care. You may be able to use long-term-care coverage to help pay for in-home elderly care.
 Senior Care Los Angeles, CA

Compassionate Care. Trusted Caregivers.

When you or your senior loved one needs assistance managing daily tasks at home, finding a qualified caregiver can be challenging. It takes a special kind of person to provide reliable care for your senior loved one. However, a caregiver's role involves more than meal preparation and medication reminders. Many seniors rely on their caregivers for companionship, too.

Our companion care services give seniors the chance to socialize in a safe environment and engage in activities at home. These important efforts boost morale and provide much-needed relief from repetitive daily routines. A one-on-one, engaging conversation can sharpen seniors' minds and give them something in which to be excited.

At Always Best Care, we only hire care providers that we would trust to care for our own loved ones. Our senior caregivers in Los Angeles, CA understand how important it is to listen and communicate with their seniors. A seemingly small interaction, like a short hug goodbye, can make a major difference in a senior's day. Instead of battling against feelings of isolation, seniors begin to look forward to seeing their caregiver each week.

Understanding the nuances of senior care is just one of the reasons why our care providers are so great at their job.

Unlike some senior care companies, our caregivers must undergo extensive training before they work for Always Best Care. In addition, our caregivers receive ongoing training throughout the year. This training ensures that their standard of care matches up to the high standards we've come to expect. During this training, they will brush up on their communication skills, safety awareness, and symptom spotting. That way, your loved one receives the highest level of non-medical home care from day one.

Assisted Living Referral Services

While it's true that many seniors prefer to age at home, sometimes in-home care isn't the best fit. For those seniors and their families, choosing an assisted living facility makes more sense. Unfortunately, finding the optimal care facility is easier said than done in today's day and age. That's when Always Best Care's assisted living referral services begin to make a lot of sense.

Assisted living is a form of housing intended for seniors who require varying degrees of medical and personal attention. Accommodations may include single rooms, apartments, or shared living arrangements. Assisted living communities are typically designed to resemble a home-like environment and are physically constructed to encourage the independence of residents.


Respite Care Los Angeles, CA

At assisted living communities, seniors receive help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and eating. They may also benefit from coordination of services with outside healthcare providers, and monitoring of resident activities to ensure their health, safety, and well-being. Caregivers who work at assisted living communities can also provide medication administration and personal care services for older adults.

Other services offered within assisted living communities can include some or all of the following:

  • Housekeeping
  • Laundry
  • Recreational Activities
  • Social Outings
  • Emergency Medical Response
  • Medication Monitoring
  • Family Visitation
  • Personal Care
 Caregivers Los Angeles, CA

At Always Best Care, our representatives can match your senior's emotional, physical, and financial needs with viable assisted living communities nearby. Results are based on comparative data, so you can select the best choice for you or your loved one.

Always Best Care works closely with local senior living communities to gain valuable knowledge that we then use to help seniors and their loved ones make informed decisions. This information can include basic care and rent, resident availability, and services provided. Because Always Best Care is compensated by these communities, we provide senior living referral services at no extra cost to you.

Some of the most popular assisted living communities to consider in our area include the following:

  • Hollywood Hills Senior Living
  • Belmont Village Senior Living Westwood
  • Senior Meridian Assisted Living Facilities & Retirement Communities Los Angeles CA
  • Sakura Gardens of Los Angeles
  • Belmont Village Senior Living Hollywood Hills

Calif. National Guard fire crew staffing reduced due to Los Angeles deployment

Gov. Newsom warns only 40% of National Guard firefighting crews remain after President Trump reassigned others to Los Angeles for immigration enforcement

By Hayley SmithLos Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — As California braces for a potentially dangerous fire season, Gov. Gavin Newsom says critical firefighting crews from the state’s National Guard are operating at just 40% of capacity following President Donald Trump’s order to divert them to Los Angeles in response to federal immigration action.

Eight of the California National Guard’s 14 firefighting crews — known as Task Force Rattlesnake — have been deployed to L.A. as part of Trump’s federalization of the Guard, Newsom said this week. Task Force Rattlesnake is made up of more than 300 members of the California National Guard who work at the direction of the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.

Only six crews are left to prepare for and potentially respond to fires, down from nine just a week ago, according to the governor.

“With peak fire season well underway across California, we need all available resources to protect communities,” Newsom said in a statement. “President Trump: rescind your illegal order and get the Guard back to the critical firefighting and prevention work that actually keeps communities safe.”

CalGuard officials said the troops were called to federal active duty under Title 10 authority, which empowers the president to activate National Guard troops for federal service under certain emergency protocols. Newsom has opposed these actions as an unwarranted and illegal infringement on the state’s authority.

Trump invoked Title 10 on June 7 when he announced he was deploying National Guard troops to Los Angeles to “temporarily protect [U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement] and other United States Government personnel who are performing Federal functions.”

California Military Department spokesperson Carl Trujillo said in an email that once troops are federalized, they fall under federal command and control and “cannot be re-tasked by the state.”

“They won’t be able to return to their firefighting duties until they’re released from that federal status,” Trujillo said.

CalGuard’s reduced firefighting capacity comes as the president weakens other agencies that help the state prepare for and respond to wildfires, including the U.S. Forest Service — the largest federal firefighting entity. The Forest Service has lost about 3,400 employees since Trump took office due to layoffs and buyouts, and is contending with budget cuts, funding freezes and a renewed focus on timber production, among other changes from the Trump administration.

The president has also made sweeping changes at the Federal Emergency Management Agency, including canceling grants and cutting staff, and has suggested disbanding the agency altogether as soon as this fall.

When asked about the CalGuard deployments, White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson told The Times “President Trump is showing [what] a real leader looks like.”

“President Trump has had to step in and save Californians from Gavin Newsom’s incompetence twice so far during the last six months,” Jackson said. “First, when Newsom was chronically unprepared to address the January wildfires, and just recently when Newsom refused to stop violent, left-wing rioters from attacking federal law enforcement.”

As tensions simmer, California is facing an active wildfire season that may be fueled by exceptionally warm and dry conditions in the months ahead. The latest outlook from the National Interagency Fire Center warns of “significant fire potential” in Northern California, the Sierra Nevada and several of the state’s coastal areas through September.

There are currently five active blazes in the state, according to Cal Fire. So far this year, the agency has responded to 2,990 fires that have burned through nearly 93,000 acres.

“These are some of our most committed members — passionate about wildland firefighting and proud to serve their communities through this unique state mission,” Trujillo said of Task Force Rattlesnake.

The president’s decision to invoke Title 10 and send troops to Los Angeles has little historical precedent, and as such has generated controversy.

Trump stated in his order that protests in response to immigration raids in L.A. threaten the safety of ICE agents and other government personnel. L.A. Mayor Karen Bass said local law enforcement was already mobilized in the area and that federalizing troops was a “provocation.”

Newsom said similarly that sending in troops was “purposefully inflammatory.” He filed a lawsuit arguing that the president’s actions were unlawful and a violation of his authority under Title 10. A judge initially sided with Newsom, but a higher court has ruled in Trump’s favor. The case remains under review.

The president has deployed nearly 7,000 federal troops to L.A. over the last two weeks.

California’s Only Hydromagnetic Water Coaster Launches From 55 Feet In The Air—And It’s Now Open 30 Minutes From DTLA

The Aqua Rocket at Raging Waters Los Angeles is the only hydromagnetic water coaster in California, offering an epic roller coaster-like experience on water that you’d be hard-pressed to find anywhere else. The ride uses magnetic propulsion to push rafts up to a 55-foot-tall launch point, which is followed by a whirlwind series of drops and inclines. Keep reading to find out more about this unique water ride in San Dimas.

Riding the Aqua Rocket

The Aqua Rocket blasts inflatable yellow rafts carrying 2-4 riders through a heart-racing water coaster route. The action begins with a conveyor belt lift that brings you 55 feet into the air, providing sweeping views of the park. Then, rafts are sent through a series of gravity-powered drops and magnetic-powered ascents, embellished with outdoor and enclosed sections, fast turns, and fast-paced action. It all ends with a big splashdown, making sure everyone on board gets thoroughly soaked.

While most water slides rely solely on gravity, the Aqua Rocket is unique for its linear induction motors, which guide rafts uphill as well as down. These “rocket incline zones” provide a rare thrill of being propelled uphill on water, varying the pace and route to recreate the head-spinning sensation of a roller coaster on water. No other water coaster in the state uses this advanced hydromagnetic technology.

Rafts can accommodate up to four people with a maximum combined weight of 700 pounds. Riders must be at least 42 inches tall to ride, and an adult must accompany kids under 48 inches tall.

Visiting Raging Waters Los Angeles

Raging Waters Los Angeles is a must-visit summer destination for families and thrill-seekers, with 50 attractions spread across 50 acres in San Dimas. Some other exciting rides include the 15-story High Extreme mat slide, the dual-drop Bombs Away, the one-million gallon wave pool, and the quarter-mile-long Amazon Adventure lazy river.

???? Visiting from LA: Raging Waters Los Angeles is just a 30-minute drive from DTLA.

???? Location: 111 Raging Waters Dr, San Dimas, CA 91773

????? Dates and hours: Open June 1-Sept. 28, 2025. Hours vary throughout the summer, and the park is only open on weekends after August 17.

California fire season is off to a furious start, and experts say it’s just the beginning

Wildfire season in Southern California got off to an ominous start this weekend, with several fires sparking across Riverside and San Bernardino counties’ parched landscapes, elevating concerns that conditions are ripe for a fiery year across the Golden State.

Experts have been warning that the Southland’s below-average rainy season is likely to set the stage for a particularly bad stretch of fires this summer and fall — and the recent spate of blazes appears to be a sign of what’s to come.

“We are on track for a pretty devastating year overall,” said Matt Rahn, the director of the Wildfire Conservancy, a nonprofit that works to improve firefighting and community resilience. “If we get hotter and drier throughout the state, then that risk increases significantly. We’re hoping that that doesn’t happen, but all predictions are pointing to a much hotter, drier summer and fall.”

This week, temperatures in the Southland are expected to begin to cool slightly after several days with highs in the 90s and triple digits across the interior, but heat will remain intense across the state. In the Central Valley, highs are expected to remain near or in the triple digits, while a chance for thunderstorms in parts of Northern California could compound fire concerns.

Though temperatures on Monday and this weekend spiked across much of inland Southern California, there was not an increased wind threat or particularly low humidity — elements that create heightened fire weather.

Still, vegetation in the area was already so parched that fires were able to take off in several spots in the Inland Empire and San Bernardino mountains, forcing large-scale evacuations and cementing concerns that this wildfire season could be particularly bad.

“Just because things have been so dry and we haven’t had that meaningful rainfall that we need, that’s why we’re starting to see fires about to break out,” said Sam Zuber, a National Weather Service meteorologist in San Diego. “Things are just really dry out there.”

On Monday, firefighters in Riverside County responded to the fourth new, large fire in just two days, trying to contain the flames that broke out just before noon near Perris. The Juniper fire was initially reported at 30 acres, but quickly grew to 175 acres, “burning at a critical rate of speed,” according to updates from the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.

Officials ordered several areas to evacuate and closed a two-mile stretch of Santa Rosa Mine Road between Juniper and Post roads.

About 25 miles northeast, firefighters continued battling the Wolf fire near Banning, where hundreds had been ordered to leave their homes for safety and many more were under evacuation warnings.

The 1,400-acre blaze was reportedly 10% contained Monday morning, but by the afternoon, that number had dropped back down to zero, according to an update from Cal Fire. At least two additional areas were ordered to evacuate overnight and more were placed under evacuation warnings Monday morning, on top of some 750 people who had already been put under evacuation warnings or orders Sunday. An emergency shelter had been set up for evacuees at Hemet High School.

Those two fires on Monday appeared to be the most pressing for Cal Fire teams, who had responded to 10 new, large fires across the state since Saturday morning, seven of which occurred in Riverside and San Bernardino counties.

The Wolf fire remained, by far, the largest. Cal Fire officials said Monday morning that crews made “good progress” on the fire overnight and expected to continue to push it back with multiple aircraft and hundreds of firefighters on the ground. The fire broke out near the intersection of Old Banning Idyllwild Road and Wolfskill Truck Trail a little after 3 p.m. Sunday, according to the agency.

The Mindy wildfire near Aguanga also started Sunday, and was measured at about 100 acres by Monday, with almost 70% containment, according to Cal Fire.

The Mandalay fire in the Jurupa Valley also ignited Sunday, growing to 83 acres with no containment, per the latest Cal Fire reports.

Near Devore, the Cable fire broke out in Cable Canyon on Sunday, but remained under 20 acres Monday, with 50% containment. Cal Fire officials reported that one firefighter there had been taken to the hospital for a heat-related injury.

On Saturday, the Lake fire forced more than 100 people to evacuate Silverwood Lake State Recreation Area. It was 485 acres and 25% contained as of Monday afternoon, but Cal Fire reported crews had been able to stop its progress.

The Smiley fire near Ordway also broke out Saturday, reaching 83 acres. It was 100% contained by Monday morning, according to Cal Fire.

With so many ongoing fires, officials issued an air quality alert Monday for the Riverside County mountains, Coachella Valley and San Gorgonio Pass, including Palm Springs and Idyllwild.

“Particles in wildfire smoke can get deep into the lungs and cause serious health problems such as heart attacks, strokes, asthma attacks, and difficulty breathing,” the weather service warned. “Everyone can be affected, but people with lung or heart disease, older adults, people who are pregnant, children, and those who spend a lot of time outdoors are at greater risk.”

Officials were also concerned that much of inland Northern California — from the eastern Mendocino National Forest to Shasta, Tehama and Trinity counties — could soon see increased wildfire activity. The region was upgraded to a red flag warning for Monday and Tuesday, with the weather service warning that thunderstorms and winds could create dangerous conditions.

“Lightning can create new fire starts and [that] may combine with gusty outflow winds to cause a fire to rapidly grow in size and intensity,” the red flag warning said. On Sunday, two fires sparked near that red flag area, but both remained under 40 acres as of Monday.

The National Interagency Fire Center predicted in June that that much of the state would likely see above-normal significant fire potential through at least September, given expected heat and a lack of rainfall, with a more immediate risk in Southern California.

“There is a greater chance for timber dominated fires during this summer compared to 2023 and 2024,” the center’s latest report said. “Larger fires are also possible in the smaller fuel types of coastal areas as the marine layer becomes less pronounced over the next couple of months.”

Fortunately, firefighters across the state have been able to keep a handle on the latest fires, Rahn said, but he worries that could change if weather conditions shift or if incidents become more widespread — like during the high-risk weekend of the Fourth of July.

“The good news is, even with these recent fires we had, especially in Riverside County, we didn’t have the wind events ... so they’re able to smash down these fires pretty effectively,” Rahn said. “But that all changes once the winds start to pick up, and that’s really been the most devastating part of a lot of our fires. ... Everybody’s on high alert right now.”

Trump administration sues Los Angeles over its sanctuary city policies

WASHINGTON — The Trump administration has sued the city of Los Angeles over its immigration policies, claiming that the city's law discriminates against federal law enforcement by treating them differently from other law enforcement authorities.

The lawsuit was filed in the Central District of California, and notes up top that Donald Trump "campaigned and won the presidential election on a platform of deporting the millions of illegal immigrants the previous administration permitted, through its open borders policy, to enter the country unlawfully."

The suit, which names Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, the City Council and City Council President Marqueece Harris-Dawson as defendants, claims that Los Angeles' laws and policies obstruct the enforcement of immigration laws. A spokesperson for Bass did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

"Sanctuary policies were the driving cause of the violence, chaos, and attacks on law enforcement that Americans recently witnessed in Los Angeles," Attorney General Pamela Bondi said in a statement. "Jurisdictions like Los Angeles that flout federal law by prioritizing illegal aliens over American citizens are undermining law enforcement at every level — it ends under President Trump."

The lawsuit comes weeks after protests over the administration's deportation efforts exploded in Los Angeles. The protesters — along with Bass and California Gov. Gavin Newsom — have become key targets for Trump and his allies.

The Trump administration has taken an aggressive approach to immigration, reassigning resources from other areas to immigration enforcement. One of Bondi's first acts as attorney general was announcing a lawsuit against New York over its "sanctuary" policies.

In Los Angeles, Trump and Newsom squared off over the use of National Guard troops in the city in response to the protests.
