Each image posted below is a completely different fire actively burning in the North Bay. It is absurd to see so much activity on the entire North Bay camera network. alertwildfire.org/northbay/i…

Yup there are hints of it in the city too.

It is very smoky in Palo Alto.

Is it coming down from the North Bay or up from Santa Cruz for y'all?

When I looked about an hour ago, it was getting worse as you went up north to around SFO. Now it just kind of... looks bad along the whole stretch. purpleair.com/map?opt=1/mAQI…

So it's blowing straight down the San Andreas? bizarre

It might be above-ground smoke from a different direction that the current pattern causes to sink to the ground if you're just northeast of the mountains.

My read of the HRRR smoke vertically integrated smoke forecast is that perhaps it's from the fires in Sonoma county or the larger fires in Napa county.
