Line Fire explodes in size to more than 7,000 acres, forcing evacuation orders

The Line Fire more than tripled in size on Saturday, growing to engulf more than 7,100 acres of vegetation and getting dangerously close to homes in the San Bernardino Mountains. KCAL News has team coverage from the scene, overhead and in the studio.

Thanks for the update. I am watching from my window across the Santa Ana river. It looks bad. Thanks to every fireman and woman for the work they do.

To those pilots out there who fly those helicopters, May the wind always be under your wings. We are grateful.

Hey, nancee and kammy...what are you guys doing to save your state? Have you walked through SF or LA on foot lately?? Nice state you got there, huh?

I live in California and you ain't seen nothing yet. Just wait until the Santa Ana winds hit in a couple weeks.

They need to call a state of emergency now b4 it gets worse

[elainedaprano]

Isn't that the same area as the earth tremors today?

Not sure why they are reporting that it was only 104° in SB - it was 111° at ours in the middle of SB

Great footage of the wow maybe we should be more sensitive on our wording.... especially since lots of people watching this are in that area and these are their homes that are in danger and in the devastation zone... we are talking about peoples lively hoods.... there is NO GREAT footage of deviation. Its footage of devastation. Its a million things but great is not one of them.

I'm pretty sure the camp fire, fires were just as bad you may not have been working at that time if you haven't seen anything as bad as what you're looking at now. Maybe California should spend a little money on control burns?

[SpookyFow]

Tell all the firebugs exactly when and where to start fires. Great update...
