The first fire was on the north side of the Beachline Expressway near Starry Street, according to fire rescue.
The second fire happened off State Road 520 in Christmas, south of the Beachline.
Crews reported a "knockdown" on both fires hours later. They said the fires are now under control.
Fire rescue on Twitter said the brush fires were about one acre in “areas of heavy growth,” and that no structures were exposed to the fires. There are also reports of smoke in both areas.
Crews said they would monitor the areas overnight.
