North Bay wildfires: Air quality diminishing

NORTH BAY, Calif. (KRON) -- Wildfires that erupted in Napa and Sonoma counties over the weekend are impacting air quality in the Bay Area.

KRON4 Meteorologist John Shrable said the worst air quality is in the North Bay where the Glass, Shady and Boysen fires are burning. Strong northeast winds are blowing smoke from the fires down over San Francisco and other parts of the Bay Area.
