High temperatures and low humidity continued to fuel the rapid spread of the Lake Fire in California, with large plumes of smoke seen in the skies of Santa Barbara County.

Firefighting efforts are extensive, with over 3,000 personnel deployed, including 221 fire engines, 28 helicopters and 77 bulldozers, according to local fire authorities.

Local fire authorities also said the size of the fire had grown to over 29,000 acres since it started on July 5, prompting evacuation orders and endangering areas such as the famous Neverland Ranch.

Reuters was able to confirm the location from road layout, vegetation, poles and a nearby building that matched satellite imagery of the area. The public information officer for Santa Barbara County Fire department said on X that the footage was filmed on July 10. – Report from Reuters
