Weathered: After the LA Firestorm

Season 7 Episode 6 | 56m 09s

Maiya follows survivors of the 2025 LA Wildfires as they confront the questions that keep them up at night—why systems failed, what could have changed the outcome, and how to prevent this from happening again. Her investigation leads to an emerging, hopeful blueprint for wildfire-resilient communities—one that could reshape how cities prepare for a hotter, more fire-prone future.
