Flames near nuclear plant

Fire can be seen up and down a hillside across Interstate 5 from the San Onofre nuclear power plant in northern San Diego County. Some flames are creeping under the large power lines -- some of which feed into Camp Pendleton -- that stretch from the Oceanside generating plant, operated by Southern California Edison.

Farther south, flames can be seen on both sides of the freeway, which remains open.
