Wildfires?

We will be leaving for LA/DL in about 2 weeks (1st trip ever), but I am nervous with the wildfires that are now burning in the area.
Any advice anyone can share to help calm my nerves about this?

Thanks!

I wouldn't worry too much. My daughter and SIL live in Southern California, and they say the media is wonderful about keeping the public informed.

DL is a across the city from the current fires. There are no hills close to DL.
You will be safe, and uneffected by the fires (except for small visibilty limitations if a fire is in the area (i.e).) I live in area where we have fires nearby and other than smoke in the air, their is nothing to worry about.

None of them should be directly affected, though reduced visibility due to smoke in the air can cause the FAA to increase spacing between flights. It should be gone in a day or two anyway.

The fires are east of the city so you should be fine
