The fire broke out about Monday afternoon in Los Padres National Forest about 15 miles north of Santa Barbara, and hours later had grown to 1,000 acres - or 1.5 square miles - amid winds of about 20 mph, U.S. Forest Service officials said. It was 5 percent contained.
"We're hoping the temperatures drop and the humidity rises," Sadecki said.
The county has issued an air quality warning because of the smoke and wind, advising people to limit time spent outdoors and to avoid outdoor exercise altogether.
