Anyone smell smoke in San Francisco?

Smoke from the Napa fire is apparently drifting into the City. I thought our place was on fire for a minute.

Atlas Peak, just north of Silverado Country Club. There are two others in Sonoma County -- one in the Mayacamas foothills between Napa and Sonoma and another NW of Calistoga. 40 mph winds are making these impossible to control I understand.

Was facing fire on three sides.Now seems under control. I hope.

The ferocious wind has died down.

The smoke was thick. Hard to breathe. Woke us up at 12 midnight.
