(From the AP) Firefighters are making good progress against a brushfire that’s burning in the Antelope Valley near Elizabeth Lake. Los Angeles County fire Inspector Frederic Stowers says the blaze, which started just after 5 p.m. Friday west of the desert city of Lancaster, was 65 percent contained. It has burned 75 acres.

Stowers says the residential community of Johnson Hill was under a voluntary evacuation at the peak of the fire, but that has since been lifted. He says no homes were damaged and none are threatened.

About 150 firefighters, four helicopters and two water dropping aircraft are fighting the flames.

Temperatures in the desert topped out at 99 degrees with single digit relative humidity Friday, according to the National Weather Service.
