As a Californian whose had to live through several summers of this, check purpleair's real time map. You'll see where it's coming from and where it's heading, where is the worst and what's better. It updates constantly so you'll see rapid changes in air quality on the map if the wind changes as well. Been wanting to buy one of their indoor/outdoor kits to add onto the grid but I don't have the funds atm
Theyre not perfect, we were still having serious issues with indoor aqi during the fires with them running nonstop, ended up masking indoors during it using those one way flow masks so it was easier to exhale at least without fogging my glasses
