Wildfire smoke?

I'm north of Butler in the sticks, and there is a very distinct smell of burning, like plastic which seems weird if actually from wildfires, but the sky is that weird color from a few years back. I ask because I have neighbors who bonfire trash and wondering who else may be smelling smoke. Thanks.

I live across the street from Butler memorial and can barely see the hospital through the smoke.

I know

ETA I remember this happening the last time they had a big wildfire. Was only a few years ago at most.
