There is a website that has a smoke prediction animation:

Here's the site's home:

Aside from us having smoke, I see that the USA is burning everywhere. West coast the worst, yes, but there are 20 down near Houston. Oh my goddess.

Hmmm. Website didn't work for me. Showed inaccurate fire perimeters for the August Complex and didn't show where the smoke is blowing, which is south down over Ukiah and the SF Bay Area.

Perhaps the secure one will be better:

although I will say that it is very choppy, so I think their server is getting more traffic than expected.

Also, it is Canada focused, so it isn't even showing the plumes from down near San Francisco or over by Houston et al.

They are drawing a lot of their data from, among other places, NASA, so there is probably a website for the USA showing the plumes for everything.
