The Freeway Complex Fire was a wildfire in the Santa Ana Canyon area of Orange County in the US state of California. The fire is notable for the extensive property damage in Anaheim Hills and Yorba Linda. 314 residences were destroyed or damaged in these two communities.

The term "Complex Fire" is one that we use to identify and name a Large Wildland fire that where one or more other fires converge into one.Sometimes,you will hear the term "Firestorm" to denote these types of fires. However,a Complex fire can be much worse than a firestorm taking into account the many fronts that the fire represents.
