The vegetation fire scorching an area in northern Santa Barbara County has burned 5,464 acres and is 5% contained as of Sunday morning, according to Cal Fire.
Shortly after 1 p.m. on Saturday, a caller reported the blaze burning near Highway 166 at Perkins Road near Cuyama. Officials ordered evacuation of residences between Aliso Canyon Road and Cottonwood Road. The Plant Fire caused a temporary shutdown of a section of Highway 166 for several hours. The highway has since reopened.
Weather forecasts show rain arriving in the Cayuma area between 2 p.m. and 5 p.m., which should assist firefighters in putting out the blaze.
