Really bad haze today?

Did anyone else notice an excessive amount of haze hanging over the city today?

Is there a fire somewhere causing this? (Don't think It's from those fires in russia)

is it just a perfect storm of the right amount of heat, wind and other factors?

I usually love it outside, but have been happy to stay indoors this afternoon.

Though it was interesting that the Chron article stated it was to clear underbrush to allow regrowth (and yesterday the article said something about some endangered bird being able to thrive, i swear i read that)

while the KHOU article sited above states:

The Forest Service said the controlled burn was necessary because conditions were so dry and it feared any little spark could set off a wildfire. It decided to burn the area before a wildfire could start and spread to neighboring residential areas.

You are correct. They did change it. The way modern journalists work, they copy each other's work and fumble with the rest.
