Currently in San Francisco — June 19, 2024: A cooler with an eye on air quality

The weather, currently.

We’ll get back into our typical cool temps on Wednesday with highs only hitting around 60 and plenty of cloud cover citywide.

As you’ve probably heard, one of the season’s first major fires is burning in Sonoma County. An air quality advisory was issued on Tuesday for the entire Bay Area. We’ll continue monitoring how the fire containment — and shifting regional wind patterns — may impact the San Francisco Bay.

If you want to reflect on the connections between achieving climate justice and Black liberation, you can revisit this conversation from SXSW. Happy Juneteenth!
