The Airport fire started in Orange County on Monday, rapidly growing to approximately 800 acres in just two hours, leading to mandatory evacuations in nearby communities.
Firefighters are utilizing ground and aerial teams, including engine strike teams, dozers, helicopters, and fixed-wing aircraft, to combat the aggressive spread of the Airport fire.
Amid an extended heat wave in Southern California, residents along several roads were urged to evacuate, with a temporary evacuation center established to assist those affected.
As of now, officials have not determined the cause of the Airport fire, which is burning in a region experiencing excessive heat warnings and high temperatures.
