🌲 Environment
Coast Guard investigators are looking into whether an emergency flare fired from a stranded sailboat near Santa Rosa Island on May 15 ignited dry brush, triggering a potential wildfire at Channel Islands National Park (rescue operations were completed with no injuries).
Wildfire smoke spread across Southern California and prompted an air quality alert that lasted until 10 p.m. Thursday.
In Ventura, the Sandy Fire reportedly began when a tractor struck a rock in dry vegetation and is under investigation.
