Can you leave? The news is frightening...100s of people missing...in Sonoma County. We are in Sacramento. The sky is red and I can smell smoke.
I'm about 1.5 hours south of Sacramento and it is so smoky here the sky is dark. It's actually cold outside with the sun covered.
I just texted my school-aged kid and said I hope his PE class is kept inside today. Breathing in the smoke, even this far from the fires, cannot be healthy.
I also just talked to my older son who is not staying where the fires are but staying nearby. He just drove near some of the affected areas and says the smoke is horrible and some places look like a total war zone, way worse than any pics he's seen online.
