The wildfire named South Fire broke out Saturday morning and has burned about 2,444 acres so far.
According to the Ventura County Fire Department, it is 0% contained, and an evacuation has been issued for people near South Mountain.
The department said in a Facebook post that “fire crews including engines, hand-crews, dozers and helicopters with night vision capabilities will continue throughout the night.”
A Red Flag Warning remains in effect until Sunday at 3PM. This is because of low humidity and 15-30 mph northeast winds with gusts up to 50 mph.
