As it did Wednesday night, the Scherpa Fire has closed both directions of Highway 101 between Goleta to the south and Buellton to the north as it’s blown by evening winds off the mountains toward the ocean. Calle Real, just north of the highway, is also closed from El Capitan State Beach to Refugio Road as flames burn stretches of meadow next to the roadway. A number of cars were reportedly stuck along the 101 while CHP and fire officials were implementing the closures.
