An air quality advisory for the Bay Area has been extended through Tuesday, due to smoke from multiple wildfires in California.
SEE ALSOThe district said that while the pollutants were not expected to exceed dangerous levels, "Smoky, hazy skies may be visible and the smell of smoke is possible."
The district warned if residents detected the smell of smoke, they should take precautions to avoid exposure by remaining indoors with windows and doors closed if possible. Air quality officials also advised that those impacted by smoke set air conditioning and car vent systems to the re-circulate mode to prevent outside air from moving in.
"Smoke can irritate the eyes and airways, causing coughing, a scratchy throat and irritated sinuses," the BAAQMD said. "Elevated particulate matter in the air can trigger wheezing in those who suffer from asthma, emphysema or COPD." Officials said elderly people, children and those with respiratory illnesses were especially vulnerable.
