This is John Batchel, speaking with my colleague Jeff Bliss, Pacific Watch, about the fires of Los Angeles and the spread and the risk of water pressure.

But we come to cultural icons.

I ask about the Getty Museum, and Jeff gives a very careful description of where it is, what risk it was under,

and so far the report is not negative.

However, to worry.

Jeff Bliss on the Getty Museum and the fires of Los Angeles.

More of this tonight.

It's fine right now.

The Getty Museum, which is in Pacific Palisades, almost in Malibu. So as you drive up Pacific Coast Highway from Santa Monica, you hit the Palisades and then Malibu, and it's right there. It's a beautiful copy of a Romanville that Jay Paul Getty had built, the late billionaire, and it houses some of the most incredible antiquities from the ancient world.

But they had quite a good plan in place to safeguard the artworks.

None of the artworks were damaged.

None of the rooms inside the villa that housed those artworks were damage.

But apparently some of the grounds were scorched by flames as well as some outbuildings,

but nothing serious, nothing that will keep them from keeping operations going.

Yeah.
