Of those 312 fires burning in Norcal, more than 100 of them are within an hour of my home and many, many are within 20 minutes. We can't breathe.

It is incredibly smoky where I am to. I could taste the smoke on my ride into work this morning.

None of it has reached Texas. Which way is the smoke blowing?

I didn't even ride to work this week, just too smoky. A breeze has cleared the air in the last several hours, but it's also fanning many of the fires and they are growing as a result. So, for a half day of cleaner air we will probably suffer another week of poor air quality.
