Macy Fire Grows to 1,600 Acres in Northern Los Angeles County

Jun 05, 2026

Fairmont, CA, June 5 – A fast-moving brush fire in far northern Los Angeles County expanded to approximately 1,600 acres on Friday, prompting evacuation measures and roadway closures as firefighters worked to contain the blaze. The wildfire, known as the Macy Fire, led authorities to issue evacuation orders in neighboring Kern County. By 8:00 p.m., those orders had been reduced to evacuation warnings, according to Kern County fire officials. Officials noted that evacuation warnings indicate a potential threat to life and property and advise residents to be prepared to leave at a moment’s notice. Residents with livestock were urged to relocate their animals when warnings are issued. The fire also prompted the temporary closure of a portion of Highway 138 as emergency crews battled the rapidly spreading flames.

Macy Fire Grows to 1,600 Acres in Northern Los Angeles County

A rapidly spreading brush fire in northern Los Angeles County has grown to approximately 1,600 acres, prompting evacuation orders, road closures, and a large-scale firefighting response. The wildfire, known as the Macy Fire, broke out Friday afternoon near the community of Fairmont and quickly expanded due to dry vegetation, warm temperatures, and gusty winds.

According to fire officials, crews from multiple agencies responded to the blaze as flames spread across rugged terrain. The fire prompted evacuation orders and warnings for some residents in nearby areas, while portions of Highway 138 were temporarily closed to ensure public safety and allow emergency personnel to operate effectively.

Firefighters have deployed both ground crews and aircraft in an effort to contain the wildfire. Authorities reported that air tankers and helicopters have been conducting water and retardant drops while crews work to establish containment lines around the fire’s perimeter.
