Some road closures have also been lifted. This includes both directions of travel on state Route 94 and Alta Road near Otay Mesa Road.
Officials from Cal Fire tell ABC 10News, "The rain has significantly helped the firefight. We continue to turn the red line to black on our map. That is a good sign, meaning that the line has been verified by firefighters as controlled."
Officials also say there is still a lot of work to be done in the wilderness. They plan to make additional evacuation lifts as soon as possible but need to ensure all hazards have been mitigated.
