Drove into Los Angeles yesterday. Drove through downtown LA twice (GPS gave the wrong directions and I was on autopilot -- not paying attention).

Drove into Santa Monica, hugged and said goodbye to my kids while wearing a respirator. I was worried it would scare the baby (me looking and sounding like Darth Vader). Baby was fine with it and she has 2 lovely new teeth.

@shrxhky420 CDF is hitting the fire east of you with the DC-10 heavy air tankers from Sac. They have a few of smaller ones also.
I think they are trying to keep the fire from jumping the freeway (152).

We have a small station in San Martin, I think, Morgan Hill? I don't know. But we also have a small airport in San Martin. Yesterday I saw a helicopter taking off, it looked like it was heading towards Santa Cruz.
I've seen all kinds of tankers and helicopters stationed out there. It's distracting because it's right off 101. Anytime something is coming in for a landing or taking off, people start slowing down to watch.

The smaller tankers are refilling at Hollister. Edit: They have the 747 on it now also.
