In San Marcos, another small fire was reported around 1:47 p.m. near Calico Lane. At around 3:30 p.m., Cal Fire confirmed that forward progress on the fire was stopped shortly after it was reported. All units called to respond to the fire were canceled, except one, which monitored potential hotspots.<\/p>\n

In the Lake Morena area, a fire initially reported as a fence fire around 12:26 p.m. on Ruddy Drive spread to nearby vegetation and eventually to a house. The fire spread around a half-acre through the vegetation and reached a house before it was contained, according to Cal Fire.
