The Bay Area Air Quality Management District has issued an air quality advisory for Saturday because of wildfire smoke.
Saturday’s air quality is expected to be in the good to low-moderate range, according to the air district, which advises anyone who smells smoke to stay inside with windows and doors closed and to set air conditioning and car vent systems to recirculate to prevent outside air from getting into their building or vehicle.
The latest air quality readings in the region can be found online at baaqmd.gov/highs.
PM2.5 is down to the 60s and 70s today, which is about half of what it was a few days ago. This is the best day yet as far as air quality.
A large high-pressure system off the coast and a strong on-shore breeze is really helping to clear the air.
