Today's air quailty: nasty
What does a dry SoCal winter foreshadow? A memorable fire season!
There's a 120,000+ acre wildfire burning in the wilderness area north of Santa Barbara. The fire isn't threatening any communities, but today the wind is blowing the smoke towards us. That means the sky is brown, it's raining ash, and everything smells a little bit like sulphur.
The former-lighting designer in me continues to be creeped out by the color of the sunlight filtering through the smoke cloud. It's orange. Very orange. Sunlight's not supposed to be that color.
Hopefully the winds will shift soon and we'll get blue sky again.
ETA: Details on the fire available here and here if you're curious.
