A wildfire in Southern California that is threatening dozens of homes has led to evacuations, burned more than 1,000 acres of land and forced the closure of parts of two major highways on Saturday.

The out-of-control brush fire forced the evacuation of dozens of homes northwest of Los Angeles and closed a stretch of Pacific Coast Highway after starting outside the city of Ventura late Friday.

Highway 101 – which runs north to south – was closed in both directions for roughly 15 miles from state Highway 150 to state Highway 33, forcing holiday travelers to take narrow, backcountry roads.
