We always have to be ready; we all have our suitcases packed and are waiting to leave. We are going south to friends, acquaintances or a hotel. We all make plans where to go. This was what Bulgarian Liya Atanasova, who lives in Los Angeles, has told bTV. 

According to her, the situation is getting better, but the weather is very changeable and it is not known what will happen. She explained that residents receive information through applications, and if they need to be evacuated, the authorities call by phone. "We think that life will become more expensive. In many places, rents have jumped, we suspect that in the coming years it will be very expensive," Liya added. There is currently no wind in the area where she is located, which is good news, but people are hoping for rain. According to US media, the death toll in the Los Angeles disaster has now reached 24.
