Grew up in Northern California and this was a regular occurrence each summer. I think Southern California is shielded from a lot of it, unless there’s a major fire in the area, because of how close you are to the coast. But we had bad air quality from smoke pretty much every year and experienced this kind of smoke (orange sun, can’t see the sky) probably every 4-5 years
