California’s Madre wildfire explodes; scorching over 70,800 acres of land, fire officials warn of 'extreme' weather conditions
California’s Madre wildfire explodes

California’s Madre fire has ballooned into the state’s largest active blaze by Friday evening, scorching about 70,800 acres in a remote stretch of Central California north of Santa Barbara and west of Bakersfield. The wildfire, which ignited on Wednesday, July 2, advanced rapidly overnight, doubling its footprint to roughly 35,000 acres before pushing east‑northeast onto the Carrizo Plain and charring parts of Los Padres National Park. Cal Fire reported that by Friday the perimeter was only 10 per cent contained. Fire officials warned that conditions would remain “extreme” for at least the next three days. They cited rapid uphill runs, wind‑driven head fire spread and dry annual grasses that produced “intense flame lengths,” while the alignment of slope and wind further complicated suppression efforts. Thick smoke blanketed farming communities along the southern rim of the Central Valley and drifted south‑southeast over the Channel Islands, raising the likelihood of light to moderate haze across the Los Angeles–to–San Diego corridor. The Carrizo Plain National Monument was closed to the public on Thursday to give crews unrestricted access. The cause of the Madre Fire remained under investigation. Meanwhile, state fire officials are urging Californians not to use fireworks when celebrating the Fourth of July holiday.
