  "summary": "Residents in the Sacramento region, including Davis and Woodland, are experiencing hazy skies and poor air quality due to smoke from two wildfires located hundreds of miles away in Monterey County. The Timber Fire and the Plaskett Fire are the sources of the smoke, with the former burning 24,970 acres and the latter 15,478.5 acres. Both fires are currently only partially contained, with the Timber Fire at 21 percent and the Plaskett Fire at 1 percent. Evacuation orders at Level 3 are in effect for several zones in the affected areas. Onshore winds are responsible for carrying the smoke northward into the Sacramento region, while a cooler weather pattern has brought partly to mostly cloudy skies.",
