What the National Weather Service wrote

Oceanside fire reports a lightning strike started a fire. The fire was about one quarter acre and burned some surrounding vegetation and fencing near homes. No homes were burned and the crew took about an hour to mop up the scene.

The wider storm

An area of upper-level high pressure centered over the southwestern U.S. led to well-above average temperatures across Southern California, as well as elevated thunderstorm convection. Fog along the coast caused travel disruptions.
