We can see the plumes of smoke, particularly from the Duarte fire. The air is filled with smoke. Ugh!

Sadly prolly have many more before the Summer's over

stay safe seems clearer here this AM but I know it takes them a lot of man hours & planes to get them contained.

Now the air is really awful, both in Pasadena and the Crescenta Valley.

RB that Sand fire affecting you two??

looking scary on the news

just sat on the edge of the runway ( well just outside the edge on the road ) at SB Airport where the FIRE Retardant planes fly in & out of ….. they were one after another got a vid of one over my head

The Raptor

The sky in the Crescenta Valley and Pasadena was really awful through Saturday, then the wind shifted and we were back to blue sky. According to my friend Dallas Raines of ABC Channel Seven News (Dallas and I go back almost 35 years) on the news last night, the wind is going to shift again and we're going to get the smoky air back today.

vtecmom

Yeah I figured you had to be getting some of it
You personally know Dallas bring him to the BBQ

those retardant dumpers were working fast yesterday outta SB we watched them and saw how quickly one came in , re-filled and took off ! those DC10's are loud over your head

UnkieTrunkie

G, they're DC10s. Stop putting them on your head.


In the meantime, this is the Sobranes fire, from Carmel Beach:
