Rob Mayeda NBC Bay Area@robmayeda.bsky.social · 3d ago8/2/2026: larger local wildfires have increased air quality impacts of late, however, it’s the potential incoming surge of wildfire smoke from the Pacific Northwest that also has our attention to start the week. #BayArea #California #SanFrancisco #SanJose #wildfires

Saturday morning air quality shows big improvement across the North Bay … with decreased fire activity over the last 24 hours. Inland heat, warm nights and dry, offshore wind across the mtns Sunday night into Monday = elevated fire danger into early next week 8/1/2026
Rob Mayeda NBC Bay Area@robmayeda.bsky.social · 5d agoSimilar wind profile today, stronger wind continues along/near the coast out of the NW (increasing midday-PM) short range models keep smoke generally in the same vicinity. Smoke levels contingent on wildfire, intensity and coverage later today #WoodsideFire 7/31/2026

Rob Mayeda NBC Bay Area@robmayeda.bsky.social · last wk.7/27/2026: In a summer of wildfire smoke issues for much of the country we’ve been pretty fortunate so far. Here’s a look at when a seasonal change in wind direction could be changing things up as we approach Fall #BayArea #SoCal #California #wildfires #airquality
Smoke from fires in the Pacific Northwest will continue to move over the area at times this week. Expect hazy skies, some visibility reductions, and areas of low air quality. Check the latest on air quality at www.airnow.gov Model data source: rapidrefresh.noaa.gov/hrrr/HRRRsmo...

7/26/2026 update: Inland heat is set to return later this week as we will also be watching mid-level moisture giving a boost to humidity and isolated thunderstorm chances to our southeast. #BayArea
Upcoming PSPS areas due to warm, dry and breezy conditions start around early pm tomorrow and may last until 10 am Thursday per PG&E includes a portion of Marin County. More regionally extensive outages planned near Soledad, King City could last until early Thursday PM. 7/14/2026
Power outage impacting more than 5,000+ residents as of the 3pm hour out in Dublin/San Ramon/Pleasanton areas with 100-105 temps in the region. @nbcbayarea 7/14/2026
When cooling? The heat feels locked in to start the week but we do have some cooler changes around the corner while fire danger remains high especially across the inland hills. 7/14/2026 #CAwx
Hot days ahead as we see a little less humidity and more inland heat through midweek. 7/12/2026 #BayArea #SanFrancisco #SanJose #Oakland #California
Lightning-sparked fire danger is an issue this time of year especially as fuel moistures continue to dry out. The pattern ahead could keep our chances on going for a while, along with the chance of some showers at times. 7/11/2026
One of the driest times of the year… except until it isn’t. We’ve seen some drizzle at times but there could be a chance of showers late weekend and early next week with a boost in humidity. Stay tuned. 7/7/2026 @nbcbayarea.com #BayArea #SanFrancisco #Oakland #SanJose #California

7/5/2026: If you ever wonder why some Summer warm-ups are more humid than others, here is one reason why. It also happens to be part of a pattern we could be seeing later this week and into the next. Stay tuned. #CAwx
