Wildfire erupts near LA as record-breaking heat scorches Southwest [View all]
A brush fire erupted Monday afternoon in Hesperia, California, leaving one burn victim and up to 50 acres of scorched land, amid record-breaking temperatures in the Southwest.
The condition of the victim was not released.
The Hesperia area is under an excessive heat watch starting Thursday through the weekend as temperatures could reach 108 degrees.
The extreme heat in the Apple and Lucerne valleys in Southern California will significantly increase the potential for heat-related illnesses, particularly for those who work or participate in activities outside, acccording to the National Weather Service.
