People impacted by the Palisades and Eaton fires can now search damage assessment maps for their home or other address.
These maps are preliminary and will be updated daily as more areas are inspected, according to L.A. County Fire Chief Anthony Marrone.
The red icon means destroyed, orange is major damage, yellow is minor damage, green is affected but with even less damage, and black means no damage.
“If there is not a color icon on your address, it means the building has not yet been inspected,” Marrone said Monday morning.
