Brown smoke on the horizon today. That means there's wildfire somewhere. Anybody have any idea where this one is, and where the smoke is coming from?
Update: As pointed out in the comments below, this smoke is from the Humboldt Fire in Paradise, California. It's about 150 miles away, but the wind is blowing just right to bring the smoke from this 23,000 acre fire our way. Stay indoors if you're sensitive to smoke!

Our news was talking about a big fire near Paradise, CA. Think they said it's north of Sacramento.
