The NWS issued a wind advisory until 9 p.m. for the county's mountains. Winds were forecast to be in the 25-30 MPH range, gusting at times to 50 mph.

Looks like that fantasy turned into reality again...and it's not only windy in CA but here in AZ it's quite windy too.

Anyone else out there having a windy day?

The coronal ejection charges particles and makes them easier to move around in their excited and agitated state. That's why winds occur easier. In Australia, serious dust storms have resulted in the past few days and elsewhere serious wind advisories are in effect.

Just conservation of energy in motion...

PS The smoke from the fires cast the moon in an orange glow already way out here - can't quite smell them yet, but probably will in a day or so. And CA talks about CARS causing air pollution....hah!
