****************************************************************** WEBSITE FOR AIR QUALITY FORECAST AND CURRENT AIR QUALITY: AIRNOW The Current Conditions shown on the SLO APCD forecast webpage reflect data from SLO APCD official monitoring stations. Additional monitoring data is available from the AIRNOW webpage. Select the AIRNOW website. Hover over the Fires banner in the upper part of the AIR NOW home page, then select Fires and Smoke Map from the drop down menu. The Fires and Smoke Map page has data from SLO APCD official monitoring stations (circles) and sensor data (squares). Sensors are operated by individuals (public) and some are operated by the SLO APCD and other government agencies. There is also information on smoke plumes on this page. There can be very significant differences in air quality over small distances, especially during a wildfire event when smoke impacts are significant. Conditions can change rapidly when smoke plumes are present. SLO APCD official monitoring stations measure different parameters. For example, the Carrizo Plains and Red Hills monitoring stations only measure ozone. Nipomo CDF and Nipomo Mesa2 monitoring stations only measure particulate matter. San Luis Obispo, Morro Bay, Atascadero and Paso Robles monitoring stations measure ozone and particulate. ****************************************************************** CALL 805 781 4390 FOR RECORDED AIR QUALITY FORECAST AND INFORMATION ****************************************************************** AIR QUALITY INDEX (AQI): AQI DEFINITION AND INFORMATION ****************************************************************** FIRE INFORMATION - INCIWEB - U.S. FOREST SERVICE WEBSITE SEE APCD WILDFIRE PAGE FOR MORE INFORMATION PLANNED BURNS Prescribed burning provide fire prevention benefits consistent with fire plans of the participating agencies.

The current conditions and the 24 hour particulate forecast may have different AQI values. A forecast of Good air quality, may include some hours of moderate air quality. For Ozone, the forecasted Air Quality Index (AQI) is representative of pollution exposure for an 8-hour period, typically in the afternoon. The current conditions and the 8 hour ozone forecast may have different AQI values. NIPOMO CDF & MESA2 FORECAST ZONES 6/15/21------Blowing Dust: Air quality is forecasted to be unhealthy for very sensitive persons due to blowing dust and sand. The 24 hour AQI is forecasted to be in the Yellow (Moderate) category; however, the hourly AQI may be in the Orange (Unhealthy for Sensiive Groups) category or the Red (Unhealthy for Everyone) category at times. An increase in PM10 & PM2.5 is forecasted to occur from 1 pm to 7 pm, with dust impacts peaking from 2 pm to 6 pm. Reschedule outdoor activities to occur when there is no visible dust. Very sensitive individuals such as infants, as well as children and adults with existing respiratory or heart conditions may experience adverse health effects during blowing dust periods. If blowing dust and sand is visible in the air, County officials recommend all adults and children avoid strenuous outdoor activity, remain indoors as much as possible, and set any heating/air conditioning/ventilation systems to recirculation. The public is advised to consult your doctor if you are experiencing health problems in an area withblowing dust and sand. If staying indoors does not provide relief, temporarily leaving the area and going to a location where the sand is not blowing and dust is not visible is advised.

The 24 hour AQI is forecasted to be in the Green (Good) category; however, the hourly AQI may be in the Yellow (Moderate) category at times. Extremely sensitive individuals with existing respiratory or heart conditions may experience adverse health effects and may need to take appropriate precautions.

CARRIZO PLAINS & RED HILLS FORECAST ZONES 6/15/21 through 6/19/21------Ozone: Atmospheric conditions are expected to be favorable for producing high ozone concentrations. Ozone concentrations are forecasted to increase significantly midday, afternoon and evening. People who are very sensitive to air pollution should limit time outside during midday, afternoon and early evening. During periods of high ozone, health impacts of ozone air pollution can be minimized by reducing strenuous activities and staying indoors. San Luis Obispo County residents are encouraged to reduce emission causing activities by limiting vehicle use. You can help prevent ozone pollution by sharing a ride, walking, riding a bicycle, taking your lunch to work, avoiding 'drive through' lanes, conserving energy and keeping your vehicles properly tuned.
