Three massive, complex fires larger than 15,000 acres are roaring through the California wilderness near the Oregon border, sending a train of unhealthy air down into the Bay Area.

Poor air quality is expected to persist in the Bay Area through Thursday.
Fire incidents that are smaller than 250 acres are filtered out of the map, unless they are a part of a larger complex fire. Some new or very small fires may not have complete information yet, so check back for updates. Fires that have been flagged as 100% contained are filtered out.
Note: map adjusted to filter out individual fire incidents within complex fires that report 100% containment.
