The fire now is the second largest fire in California's history, at 272,000 acres. Winds will kick up tonight so we have another Red Flag warning.
Thousands of firefighters are about to go home for Christmas. Resources will be reduced in the air fight.
Reindeer Lightning and Holiday have been evacuated from the Santa Barbara Zoo and will not return until after the first of the year, due to Red Flag Wind Warning for tonight and into tomorrow. They are always the Christmas spotlight in Santa Barbara for kids who spend the night Christmas eve every year.
