Flames broke out Sunday<\/a> across from the Miami Executive Airport on Southwest 120th Street, near 137th Avenue.<\/p>\nAs of Monday afternoon, the fire has scorched about 25 acres.<\/p>\n
Miami-Dade Fire Rescue and the Florida Forest Service are tackling the fire with several engines.<\/p>\n
Neighbors are cautious about the smoky conditions.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere was smoke, a lot of smoke. I noticed when I came out since yesterday, the patio, everything, everywhere, there was smoke. You couldn\u2019t even see,\u201d said neighbor Richard Tobi.<\/p>\n
The visibility was extremely bad at times, which made officers shut down 120th Street.<\/p>\n
Officials continued asking people to avoid the area, and some avoided going outside altogether for their health.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou can smell it, and I got birds and dogs, and I won\u2019t let them out because of the smoke,\u201d said Tobi.<\/p>\n
No injuries have been reported. <\/p>\n
