Smoke from multiple wildfires hung over much of Southern California, concentrated by winds along a coastal stretch from Santa Monica to Long Beach.
Smoke from multiple wildfires hung over much of Southern California Thursday, blanketing the region with hazy brown vistas and pungent, ashy air and prompting health warnings from air quality officials.
The South Coast Air Quality Management District issued a smoke advisory spanning much of Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties. Officials predicted smoke and ash to produce pollution levels that are “unhealthy for sensitive groups,” including children, the elderly and people with preexisting health problems. Air pollution could potentially reach higher levels in areas directly downwind from fires, the advisory noted.
Air quality in the “moderate” range was widespread Thursday morning as winds blew from the north and northeast, pushing smoke south and southwest across Los Angeles County. Pollution levels reachedBut with winds predicted to shift to come from the west and southwest on Thursday afternoon until sunset, the smoke could move back east and northeast across the L.A. Basin.Pollution tends to be worst in the early morning, when weather conditions cause wildfire smoke to hug close to the ground.
