Answer 1

there is fire in clearlake..

The primary source of the smoke locally remains the out-of-control Walker Fire in Lake County,  which has burned 14,000 acres and is only 5 percent contained.  Fire officials expect the amount of blackened acreage to grow substantially as firefighters conduct deliberate burns to curtail the fire's spread.

The fire, which began Sunday, had threatened the Spring Valley subdivision northeast of Clearlake, but the area is now considered safe but the cause of the blaze is unknown.

In the Bay Area, unhealthy air is predicted throughout the Eastern District on Thursday, including Concord, Livermore, Pittsburg, Pleasant Hill and Walnut Creek, the air quality district said. Unhealthy air for sensitive people is predicted for the North Counties region, including Calistoga, Napa, Novato, Petaluma, San Anselmo, San Rafael, Santa Rosa, Sonoma and Vallejo.
