Wording clarification[edit]

I think, from the wording of this article, it seems like this was an organised or officially recognised/designated event, when in reality "Orange/Orange Skies Day" is just the name given by the media/locals to this specific climatological event. I definitely think this is a notable event (received significant media attention+coverage, impacted a large urban area, part of a wider event) so for sure merits the article; however, I feel the wording could be clearer so there's not a misunderstanding of the nature of this.

Location clarification[edit]

Is this article about orange skies in general or orange skies in San Francisco? Many places on September 9th had orange skies and it's unclear why orange skies in San Francisco is noteworthy. SalmonSalmonSalmon (talk) 05:43, 17 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
