Stay safe, wear a respirator (n95 or kn95) if you have one, indoors too as much as you can tolerate if the air quality is in question. So sorry you're going through this.

Or is the SF in your name for San Fransisco. I know it wouldn't be Santa Fe as we are currently overcast (got a bit of snow overnight) but otherwise clear air.

...Lake County north of Napa County. This must be what it looks like in hell.

5 straight years of hellish fires and now this Martian daylight.

It's really apocalyptic. I think I would probably be freaking out right about now.

It's dark here on the peninsula! The smoke is very high, though, and the actual air quality at ground level is better than it has been in a couple of weeks. It doesn't smell smoky, but it is still eerie
