Eaton Fire News and Updates
The Eaton Fire began on January 7, 2025, near the electrical towers in Eaton Canyon owned and operated by Southern California Edison (“SCE”). The fire burned more than 14,000 acres, causing widespread devastation across the region. Thousands of homes and structures were damaged or destroyed, leaving countless families displaced.
