No, it's not just your eyes today -- there's a huge 25,000 acre fire north of Lake Berryessa in Napa and Yolo Counties, the smoke from which is hazing up the sky down here in San Francisco (today's inversion layer conditions are trapping the smoke low to the ground). It's not the day to go out running. (The picture is from the Channel 5 website from earlier today).

If that weren't enough, there was also some sort of spontaneous combustion in a woodpile in San Carlos, a man got caught in an electrical fire at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, and a small fire in the Sunset required the evacuation of Herbert Hoover middle school. The dry weather plus high winds have created a red-flag fire warning today. Meanwhile, SFist is hoping we can somehow use this as an excuse to go home early from work.
