An explosive wildfire that's caused thousands to evacuate from their homes in Southern California is sending smoke hundreds of miles to the east, giving residents in Arizona a bright red sun in the sky.

The Apple Fire has scorched more than 32 square miles of dry brush in the mountains east of Los Angeles, after exploding in size over the weekend.
...
"This smoke extends from The Sea of Cortez,  Lake Havasu, Phoenix, and Payson," the NWS forecast office in Flagstaff tweeted.
...
The Apple Fire in Riverside County began as two adjacent fires reported Friday evening in Cherry Valley, an unincorporated area near the city of Beaumont about 85 miles east of downtown Los Angeles.

I am not and never have been a leftist.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

A major wildfire emerged in Cherry Valley, Southern California, on Friday evening, July 31, 2020, prompting evacuation orders for more than 8 000 people in Riverside and San Bernardino counties. The blaze, called the Apple Fire, has spread to 10 860 ha (26 850 acres) of land by Tuesday, August 4, and is only 15 % contained.

The fire burned up the side of Mount San Gorgonio overnight. One single-family home and two outbuildings were destroyed near Avenida Maravilla by Saturday, August 1.

Officials urged evacuations in parts of Cherry Valley and Banning Bench in Riverside County. Residents in Oak Glen and the Potato Canyon area were also ordered to flee. More than 2 500 households were prompted to leave, affecting some 8 000 individuals.

The Forest Service closed the San Gorgonio Wilderness, as well as the associated roads and parking lots. Other places closed down were Big Falls Trail, Falls Picnic Area, and the Pacific Crest Trail between the Forest boundary and Onyx Summit.
