Ugh! Sorry about that!
I was hoping that it wouldn't blow to the west; so far it hasn't.

Los Angeles worst heatwave was in 1955, August 31 - September 7.
Seven days of 100°+ temperatures. September 1st hit a then record high of 110°. A week later:
Sept. 13, 1955: Hot weather and a low inversion layer leads to the highest recorded ozone level in Los Angeles history.
(John Malmin / Los Angeles Times)
Downtown L.A. buildings are barely visible from 1st and Olive streets at the peak of heavy smog. Faintly visible from left are the Hall of Records, law building,
new county law library and state building, with City Hall in background.
