The fire agency said in late afternoon on social media that the forward progress of the second blaze, the Hawick fire, had been stopped.

A brush fire in the Lakeside area grew to more than 850 acres Wednesday, which kept Cal Fire firefighters on the scene and evacuees from accessing their property for a second day.

The fire, reported in the El Monte Road east of Yucca Drive in Lakeside, has now burned 200 acres east of Wildcat Canyon Road and west of El Capitan Reservoir. It was initially reported to have burned five acres at about 2:30 p.
