That megamillions jackpot isnt the only breathtaking story in the news tonight. Have you been outside lately . The air quality is horrible. And in a couple fires in san jose and redwood city and it only got worse. Check out the shot in the middle of your screen. You couldnt see San Francisco from oakland today. In fact, the bay areas air quality is so bad its currently worse than beijing, china, but a long shot. A record 11th straight spare the air day has been declared for tomorrow. Paul, what is going on . First off, thankfully its not going to stay this way. It was very poor air quality today. The reason why we added more junk to the atmosphere, those fires burning to the south of San Francisco. All of that stuck under a lid. The lid being a big ridge of High Pressure. The pollution had nowhere to go. We were stuck breathing it today. Heres a shot from san jose through the afternoon. You can see the haze, the film. That is all the pollution that is not allowed to escape. As for tomorrow, it will be the 11th consecutive spare the air day with moderate air quality everywhere except for the south bay where the air will be unhealthy once again. So bad air once again tomorrow afternoon, no wood burning around here, but things will be changing. Not only will the wind change, we have a minor chance of rain fall.

White smoke and the stench of burning plastic could be seen and smelled for miles around. The redwood Fire District told us there have been discussion about fining sims to recoup some of the cost of fighting those fires. Its very unusual to have this many fires in a few weeks and sims is very concerned about it. Not our normal mode of operation and well do everything we can to make sure this doesnt happen again.

You can see it in this nasa satellite image. The smoke is blowing to the north right into the bay area. John blackstone reports firefighters are keeping their fingers crossed for some help with the weather. In december, the dramatic coastline and mountains of big sir should be under rain clouds, not thick smoke from a wild fire. But rain fall is 84 below normal. Martha is the volunteer. I cant remember if we have ever had a fire in december. We had an earlier, in the beginning of the year in april or may, but december, no. Christmas around the corner, no. My christmas carsons home was one of those lost in the unusually dry forest. The fire spread with such speed. It even surprised the fire chief. I have no idea how it is started. Everything is dry, ready to burn. 16yearold, perez, tried to save his home. Me and my dad ran out. We got fire hoses. We started to fight the blaze, but it was too late.
