yuck.

The Los Angeles skyline is obscured by smoke from the Station Fire north of the city August 31, 2009. A deadly wildfire burning out of control for a sixth day in the parched mountains north of Los Angeles doubled in size overnight on Monday and posed a continuing threat to Mount Wilson, a key communications nexus for the region's broadcasters and emergency services.

Yup..yuck is right. I can say I’ve never seen fire this close before, though it’s still 20 miles south of me and there’s nothing but open desert between us.

The Station fire is creeping up on 100,000 acres charred. That’s unbelievable. Think of if you’re at the Rose Bowl, then drove up to Palmdale, it’s basically all burned between those two points. like, moonscape. And all that particulate matter is now aloft!
