From L.A. Times:

“I think I’m in shock right now,” said Malibu city councilmember Bruce Silverstein, who evacuated with his family shortly after he smelled smoke while at home in the hills above City Hall around 11 p.m.

Silverstein... watched as fire gradually approached his property through the Internet-connected Ring cameras stationed around his house.
...

hundreds of firefighters responded to the fire and had been hampered by winds of 50 to 80 miles an hour.
...

Firefighting helicopters were picking up water using the lakes at Pepperdine’s Alumni Park to drop on the flames, the campus said."
