Three brush fires sparked in Lawson Valley, prompting evacuations on Thursday night.
The fires, which are collectively being called the Springs Fire, are burning at a moderate rate of spread in a rural area near Lyons Valley Road and Honey Springs Road. They have scorched 50 acres in total and are 10% contained, according to Cal Fire San Diego.
Crews were making good progress and stopped one of the fire’s forward rate of spread by 8:45 p.m., the agency said in an X post. The two other fires have merged.

Second storm brings rain and strong winds to San Diego County
What to Know
- Rain and gusty winds roll back in Tuesday night
- Beware of falling trees, as moist ground and strong winds may cause trees to fall
- Wind advisory in effect Tuesday at 8 p.m. to Wednesday morning
- Winter weather advisory is in effect for San Diego’s mountains until 10 p.m. Thursday
- High surf advisory through Friday
Sunlight broke through the clouds on Tuesday morning, shining a light on the damage San Diego County sustained from Monday’s storm. After a brief dry period, brace for another round of weather on Wednesday. Here’s what to know.
Weather: Tuesday night to Thursday
While Tuesday was sunnier and drier, don’t get too hopeful for San Diego’s famous sun rays just yet.
Round two of rain is expected to arrive late Tuesday night, bringing more precipitation, gusty winds and the possibility of a dusting of snow at lower elevations, according to NBC 7 meteorologist Greg Bledsoe.
A wind advisory goes back into effect Tuesday at 8 p.m. through Wednesday morning with wind gusts of 45 mph possible in the coastal areas and some isolated stronger gusts. The strongest gusts are expected Tuesday night. Beware of falling trees, especially along the coast, where the ground is saturated and will only become more saturated with the rain on the way, Bledsoe added. Such conditions make it easy for trees to fall. During Monday’s storm, a large Torrey Pine tree in Pacific Beach came crashing down on top of a home and a car.
Another round of rain will arrive Tuesday night through Wednesday morning (about a half inch) and while this next round will not be as wet as Monday’s storm, it will be colder, Bledsoe said.
“The majority of the rain that we’re going to see out of this second round should fall while most folks are sleeping [Tuesday night] so you shouldn’t see as much during the day on Wednesday,” Bledsoe said.
Possibilities for snow are dropping lower overnight, possibly down to around 4,000 feet. A winter weather advisory is in effect for San Diego’s mountains until 10 p.m. Thursday.
High mountain dwellers living on Mt. Laguna and Mt. Palomar could see 6 inches to 12 inches of snow between Tuesday and Thursday nights. Lower elevation mountains like Julian could see a mix of rain and snow with very little, if any, accumulation, and then another chance for light dusting of snow on Thursday, according to Bledsoe.
Dangerous rip currents are in the forecast. A high surf advisory is in effect through Friday. The surf will peak Wednesday with waves of 4 feet to 9 feet, while some sets may get as high as 12 feet!
Strong winds and high rip currents are ingredients for a dangerous time for anyone in the water. It’s best to just stay out of the water this week, Bledsoe said.
While Wednesday afternoon will be drier, San Diego County isn’t completely done with the rain yet. High mountain dwellers continue to have more chances for rain and snow on Thursday.
Weather ahead: Friday and the weekend
By Friday, things start to dry out, making way for a drier and slightly warmer weekend, Bledsoe said.

Hirving Lozano Viciously Slammed Amid San Diego Exile As World Cup Hopes Shrink
Hirving “Chucky” Lozano needs to find a new club after falling out of favor with San Diego FC, but his brother and fellow professional player Bryan Lozano believes plenty of potential suitors “really don’t want him” as the 2026 World Cup looms large.
San Diego FC made Lozano their first ever marque signing and Designated Player ahead of the team’s inaugural campaign in Major League Soccer. But after just one season, Lozano’s relationship with manager Mikey Varas and the rest of the club’s hierarchy fractured, so much so the team announced he was no longer part of the side’s sporting plans for 2026.
Lozano’s disciplinary issues couldn’t come at a worse time given he’d just started to become a regular with the Mexico national team after spending over a year away from El Tri. By the end of 2025, his spot in Javier Aguirre’s World Cup roster appeared to be a lock. But now, his presence in the tournament is in serious doubt.
If “Chucky” wants to play in his third World Cup, he must find a new home to get consistent minutes before the tournament, but in his brother’s eyes, there’s little hope for El Tri’s 2018 World Cup hero.
Hirving Lozano’s Brother Highlights Chucky’s Disciplinary Issues
Off-field issues have become synonymous with El Chucky in recent years. In an interview with ESPN, his brother offered insight on the recurring disciplinary problems and their consequences.
“In Napoli, he had problems with [Gennaro] Gatusso and his staff,” Bryan Lozano said. “At the time, he also had them [problems] at PSV Eindhoven. He’s rude and arrogant and that leads nowhere. That’s influenced why many really don’t want him.
“Regardless of him [having a high salary] at San Diego, I think that is an excuse [potential suitors use], because it’s not worth having a player like that, knowing it’s important to have a healthy dressing room. So no team or very few will risk signing him, because in the end they run the risk of something similar happening [with Lozano at their club].”
San Diego’s decision to exclude Lozano from their 2026 plans has been public knowledge since early in the year. The January transfer window came and went and Lozano was unable to find a new home, putting him in a precarious position.
What Are Hirving Lozano’s Current Options For World Cup Push
January reports suggested that Lozano was offered to Liga MX powerhouses Monterrey and Cruz Azul to reinforce their ranks for the Clausura 2026. In the end, neither team pulled the trigger on the move.
Unlike the vast majority of leagues around the world, the MLS transfer window remains open until Mar. 26. A sideways move within the league could be Lozano’s most likely escape route, but there hasn’t been any reported interest shown in the 30-year-old winger.
Any move outside of MLS would only be possible if San Diego and Lozano were to reach an agreement on breaking his current contract, valid until the end of 2028.
However, reports suggest Lozano wouldn’t mind staying in San Diego and repairing his relationship with the club. As of now, though, the Southern California side remains firm on its decision to part ways with the Mexican.
With very few options on the table, Lozano better hope San Diego soften their stance in the coming weeks, or he could likely be out of action until the summer window open following the World Cup.
After featuring in five of Mexico’s last six games of 2025, Lozano needs to find a solution to his murky situation soon, or else his previously strong chance representing El Tri in its home World Cup will disappear months before the tournament starts.
