Arab Weather - Satellite images taken by NASA clearly showed the extent of the smoke resulting from the Los Angeles fires. The smoke covered large areas of the city and neighboring areas extending towards the ocean waters, reflecting the extent of the fires in the region. The state of California, specifically Los Angeles, has been experiencing a wave of raging fires for several days that have led to material and human losses and are still ongoing at the time of preparing this report.

 

The air quality index reveals that the smoke is spreading into the upper atmosphere, affecting the air quality in the city and surrounding areas. The smoke is also being carried by winds to other areas, posing an additional threat to residents of those areas, especially in light of the activity of the dry easterly winds, locally called "Santa Ana".

 

And God knows best.
