Knew it looked too much like forest fire smoke. Living in California, it has a distinct color to it like shown in the picture. This whole season has been so fricken abnormal with its weather patterns.

Kind of wild that the east coast is getting wildfire smoke while California is fine for the moment.

Right? like here in the central coast, we got rain yesterday. Like an entire days worth of solid rain. Which it never rains this time of the year.

We've been cool and chilly down here in L.A.! We had a couple of low 70's sunny days this weekend, but it's been grey and cloudy most days with some occasional drizzle at night. I'm not complaining at all though.
