LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – An air quality alert issued by the Lake County Air Quality Management District will continue through Wednesday evening due to the impacts on the air basin from wildland fire smoke.
This week Lake County’s air basin has been heavily impacted by smoke not just from the LNU Lightning Complex – burning in southern Lake County, along with Napa, Solano, Sonoma and Yolo counties – but also from the August Complex of fires and the Hull fire in the Mendocino National Forest.
The Air Quality Management District said all areas of Lake County should be prepared for continuing periods of “unhealthy” to “hazardous” conditions through until 7 p.m. Wednesday when conditions are expected to begin to improve.
On Wednesday evening winds are expected to shift from the southwest to west-northwest, bringing cleaner air into the region. The slight change in regional wind patterns can significantly reduce the basin-wide smoke impacts, the air district said.
The district said smoke is still expected to intermittently impact the air basin until all of the regional fires are contained.
