Residents watch as a brush fire burns out of control in the Santa Ynez Mountains near Goleta, Calif., on Wednesday, July 2, 2008. California fires are raging from the western edge of the Sierra Nevada to coastal mountains near Big Sur. They have created a smoky haze so stifling that some doctors in the San Joaquin Valley say their waiting rooms have been crowding with patients struggling to breathe.
