Cal Fire and local agencies are investigating several recent fires in the region, including the Border 2 Fire that has burned over 6,600 acres.

A new wildfire was reported today at 9:43 a.m. in San Diego County. Pala 3 Fire has been burning on private land. There is currently no information on the containment of the fire and its cause has not yet been determined.

With parts of Los Angeles County still smoldering from wildfires, the expected rain this weekend would seem like a welcome relief. But how the rain falls could make the difference between a disaster respite or a disaster repeat.

Less than two weeks after the Los Angeles County fires wreaked havoc, San Diego County was met with multiple brushfires.

Border 2 Fire initially started 1:58 p.m. Jan. 23 in San Diego County. After being active for three days, it has burned 6,625 acres. A fire crew of 2,413 effectively contained 10% of the fire by Sunday morning. The blaze's cause remains under investigation.

Firefighters are responding Wednesday to a brush fire in Rancho Bernardo. The fire started around 8:55 a.m. near Bernardo Center Drive and Camino del Norte, according to San Diego Fire-Rescue, which was responding alongside Poway Fire.

Rain brought much needed aid to the Los Angeles firefight, moving the fires surrounding the city closer to containment.

The Border 2 Fire, a brush fire that broke out on Otay Mountain near the U.S.-Mexico border in San Diego County on Thursday afternoon, January 23, had burned more than 6,625 acres and was 10% contained as of Sunday.

The Sheriff's Office says evacuation warnings have been lifted and evacuated residents in some areas can safely return home
