The National Weather Service issued a red flag warning in parts of LA and Ventura Counties on Wednesday. High winds and dry conditions contributed to the increased risk of wildfires. The warning ended Wednesday night, but concern over high fire risk persists into Thursday as the weather remains hot and dry. About Sanika Bhargaw

I am a senior majoring in Broadcast and Digital Journalism, and minoring in Economics and International Health and Development. After graduation, I want to work in local TV news as a reporter, and later work internationally. If I'm not in the newsroom (which I usually am), you'll find me practicing and competing in ballroom dancing! Love USC sports? (We promise we'll only text you when it's important)
