Two brush fires burning along I-15 in northern San Diego County have prompted evacuation orders for some as they burn at high rates of speed due to strong winds in the area.

Several residents in a San Diego area community are being evacuated as firefighters work to battle a wind-driven brush fire that is threatening homes.

Lilac Fire initially started today at 1:19 a.m. in San Diego County. After being active for less than an hour, it has burned three acres, an increase of three acres since the last update. At this time, there are no details on the containment of the fire.
