EVENING UPDATE:  Cumulative smoke impacts from the Chimney fire, poor ventilation, and some additional fire activity on the shoulders of the south end of the Sobranes fires will result in moderate to unhealthy for sensitive groups this evening.  Smoke will continue to settle into the Carmel Valley and drain into the Salinas Valley via Greenfield throughout the evening. Big Sur will not see relief tonight and likely reach the very unhealthy ranges.
