Firefighters are working tirelessly to combat the Nixon Fire in Riverside County, where about 1,000 southern Riverside County homes are under an evacuation orders Tuesday due to a 3,700-acre fire that's consumed at least seven houses in its path, with 0% containment Cal Fire said.

Firefighters are working to combat the wind-driven Nixon Fire in the Aguanga neighborhood of Riverside County. The brush fire, which was first reported at around 12:30 p.m. Monday, grew to at least 3,700 acres as of Monday night.

More than 250 firefighters are attacking flames near the San Diego County border, where hilly terrain and shifting winds posed major challenges.

The fire spread into a burn scar from the Bonny Fire that burned for more than a week last summer in Aguanga. That flank of the fire lost momentum with little fuel to burn on hillsides stripped of vegetation by the Bonny Fire, but flames continued to more toward Iron Spring Mountain near the county border.
