Smoke fills the valley sky and extends into the foothills, Sierra and even over the crest into Reno. News10 meteorologist Monica Woods says weather conditions will continue to favor smoke in the valley. Woods says with so many fires still burning throughout the region, we'll likely have to deal with the smoke into Friday possibly through the weekend. Today's air quality is unhealthy for Sacramento, Placer, El Doarado, San Joaquin and Stanislaus counties. Air quality for Yolo and Solano Counties is forecast to be in the unhealthy for sensitive groups range.
