Congrats to the nationals. Very impressed. This has been a series for the road team so we will talk about that also coming up. We do begin with the extreme fire danger in california. This could be the worst day yet in the Los Angeles Area because an extreme red flag warning is now in effect there until thursday evening due to hurricaneforce winds that can fan flames. One area of concern is the getty fire in West Los Angeles which weve learned started when a tree branch hit a power line. It and the kincaid fire north of San Francisco are both about 15 contained right now. We begin with abcs elena gomez. Reporter californias governor looking at the ruins of destroyed homes, surveying the damage left by the getty fire. Only 15 contained as california braces for a powerful new round of santa ana winds that have a dangerous history of turning sparks into infernos. These are probably the worst winds los angeles has seen in the last two to three years. Reporter those winds, some hurricane force, fuel already brutal conditions in the hills just above los angeles. Over 1,100 firefighters trying to contain the blaze on the ground and from the air. The expected dangerous wind conditions spelling no relief for thousands of residents still evacuated. So people will not be returning to their homes because those extreme wind events were going to see, those can pick up and transfer the fire miles away sometimes. Reporter meanwhile in northern california, those winds are already picking up, fanning the kincaid fire. Visibility near zero as these crews put out hot spots in sonoma county. Over 4,000 personnel are working on that fire as we speak. Reporter the new fire danger forcing another round of power cuts. Some 1. 5 Million People expected to lose electricity this time. The manager of this supermarket firing up the generators again. Its just been wild. Its just been crazy. Reporter officials now saying the cause of the getty fire here in Southern California was a tree branch falling on a power line causing it to spark. In brentwood, california, elena gomez, abc news. More tree branches are likely to fall today in the very strong winds. Accuweathers adam del rosso has the forecast. That fire risk across Southern California reaching extreme levels again today and also into our day tomorrow. Were talking gusts upwards of 80 Miles Per Hour across central and northern california. We eventually get some relief as we head into the afternoon, however through this morning we still have that high fire threat with gusts up to 70 Miles Per Hour. Red flag warnings remain in effect across the area all the way through tomorrow across Southern California. Now to washington where impeachment investigators heard from the First White House official who was actually on President Trumps controversial phone call to ukraine. Lieutenant colonel Alexander Vindman told impeachment investigators he twice reported concerns about the administrations push for ukraine to investigate former Vice President joe biden, and the New York Times is reporting vindman also said the rough transcript of the ukraine call omitted crucial words, and his attempts to make the corrections failed. Reporter Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman arrived on capitol hill in his full dress army uniform. A Current National Security Council official and purple heart recipient to testify before congress. According to his prepared remarks obtained by abc news, vindman would tell lawmakers, i did not think it was proper to demand that a Foreign Government investigate a u. S. Citizen. He would say that it was his sense of duty to the United States that compelled him to raise his concerns with superiors. But President Trump on twitter attacking vindman as todays never trumper witness. The same line he used last week on the top u. S. Diplomat to ukraine, bill taylor. Hes a never trumper. Reporter theres no evidence that vindman or taylor have political biases against the president , but they did both sound alarms about the president and ukraine. Mr. Trumps allies on fox news attacking the ukrainianborn vindmans loyalty by focusing on his heritage. He tends to feel simpatico with the ukraine . Here we have a u. S. National security official who is advising ukraine while working inside the white house, apparently against the president s interests. Reporter on capitol hill republicans and democrats say those attacks crossed a line. They cant defend the president s conduct, so basically they are attacking a war hero who continues to serve our country. Attacks on individuals dont make a lot of sense to me in general. Reporter rare bipartisan agreement in what has been an incredibly divisive process on capitol hill. House democrats have unveiled plans to enter a more public phase of the impeachment inquiry with a vote on the proposed rules set for tomorrow. The vote will clear the way for the House Intelligence Committee to hold public hearings, and republicans will be allowed to call witnesses. The evidence will then be handed off to the house judiciary committee, the panel that would draft potential articles of impeachment. And President Trump will have a right to counsel. A former Campaign Aide for President Trump and a key figure in the russia probe is running for a california congressional seat that will be left vacant by embattled representative katie hill. George papadopoulos filed paperwork with the fec on tuesday. Hill resigned over claims of inappropriate sexual behavior. Back to capitol hill where boeing ceo was grilled by senators during a tense hearing on safety issues after two deadly crashes. The hearing occurred one year after the first crash, a lion air 737 max that went down in the java sea in indonesia, killing 189 people. Ceo Dennis Muilenburg admitted the company made mistakes in developing the troubled 737 max. He said the plane should have been grounded after that first crash. We got some things wrong. They were in flying coffins as a result of boeing deciding that it was going to conceal mcas from the pilots. The premise of that we would lie or conceal is just not consistent with our values. The hearing adds to the pressure on the ceo. He was stripped of his chairmanship earlier this month. He returns to capitol hill today for a house hearing where hes sure to face more tough questions. Now to the world series and bigtime drama last night between the nationals and astros. Houston had a 21 lead going into the fifth, then washington tied it up and went ahead on a pair of solo home runs. Then things got really interesting. In the seventh, Washingtons Trey turner tried to beat out a groundball at first. The throw got away, but after a long review, turner was called out for interfering with the first baseman. Later nationals manager Dave Martinez tried to argue the call and went berserk at the umps. The argument took place during the seventh Inning Stretch and the singing of take me out to the ball game. Martinez was ejected. Kick me out of the ball game. The nationals tacked on a couple more runs in the ninth and closed out a seasonsaving 72 win. They will decide the world series tonight in a winner take all game seven. I said at the top of the show, this has been a series for the road team. Neither team has won a game at home. It is incredible that they call them road warriors. Thats exactly what they are that houston went to d. C. Without a win under their belt, went home only needing one more to take it all, and then the nats finally come back to play. T the nats. Visiting teams have won three straight game sevens in the world series. And look, you know what, if were going to be honest, nats, were pulling for you. We are. Sorry, houston, we are. I already apologized to houston last week when you went here. Im sorry. Houston, i loved that music you were doing in the late 2000s. You do love baby shark, theyre playing that a lot as well for the nats. That too, a hit at my house too. My i. D. Still says washington, d. C. , got to get that changed. Coming up yeah, theyre going to be looking for you. Coming up later in the mix, one of this years hottest Halloween Costumes thats selling out. Its called the janai.
