Fires in Northern California

Transcript

If you're ever curious what it's like to be in California during a fire, this is exactly what you would see. It is so hazy outside right now. It definitely, definitely, definitely should not be out here. But normally, normally it is so clear. But it's actually, I think, 20 times worse because we're at the same elevation as the smoke, but you can see it over there. It's just super hazy. I'm in Healdsburg area, which is like 10, 15 miles away from where the fires are right now.
