A raging wildfire east of Los Angeles has put 35,000 homes and buildings at risk, forcing hundreds to evacuate as California battles a relentless heat wave. 🌍🔥 The blaze, dubbed the Line Fire, is tearing through grass and chaparral along the San Bernardino National Forest's edge—just 65 miles from LA—leaving skies choked with smoke.
