Clearly things are not under control. These latest quotes from the Forestry Service are pretty frightening.
"“When the fire gets into diseased trees the fire will be of biblical proportions,” Tuttle said. Since the trees are dead, they provide perfect fuel for the fires and would produce an intensity of heat and flame not so far seen in the week old battle.
“We are worried. We are trying to hold the fire out of that area, but if it does go up it will be of epic proportions. We will not have seen a conflagration of those proportions once it gets started,” she said. "

Are you sure the ashes/soot in the air came from the fires? Sounds like everyday Los Angeles air quality to me.
