This is the wildfire in Cleveland National Forest that is coating my car and, in all likelyhood, the inside of my lungs, with fine white ash. The fire started this morning at 6 am and when I went to work this morning it looked like a small house fire on the side of the road. By mid-day, the entire sky was this strange shade of yellow-brown. Although the fire was near me in Anaheim, the smoke spread all they way down to Irvine where Chris works. Right now, the fire is approximately 1200 acres and they have started to evacuate people in the nearby Anaheim Hills neighborhood.
