I remember my first day in L.A. in the Marines headed for 29 Palms MCB.
I got on the bus headed for Palm Springs And sat up front a was talking to the driver.
I looked out and said it sure is a foggy day today! He laughed and said that’s not fog, that’s SMOG!!!!.........
Yep, sometimes it got so bad they had issues finding the fires.
With 200,000+ leaf blowers daily it’s like a toxic soup from everything imaginable decaying and rotting on the ground being blown into the atmosphere. And like the old days with smog, the mountains surrounding S.CA area hold much of the dust and particles.
I’m surprised the leftist in CA have not outlawed the blowers
