| When any district's 0-6 am average PM2.5 is >= 27 ug/m
increasing concentrations will result in a reduction in allocation acres (e.g. 27-28 : 20%, 29-30 : 40%, 31-32 : 60%, 33-34 : 80%) |

| *** Due to current circumstances, forecasts may experience delays. We apologize for any inconvenience. Should you have any questions email the forecaster at armet1@arb.ca.gov or leave a message at 916-322-6014 and someone will get back to you *** *** Fire updates: *** LNU Lightning Complex 375,209ac @74% August Lightning Complex 261,204ac @20% Butte/Tehama/Glenn Lightning Complex 61,609ac @40% https://www.fire.ca.gov/ https://inciweb.nwcg.gov/ *** NO Burn Day *** *** Forecast AQIs in the USG range of 101-150 AQI *** Better air quality for a change as containment on the SCU and LMU fires is paying off. Thank you firefighters. Strengthening delta winds, which are much cleaner now, are combining with upper level offshore flow to put us in the proverbial eye of the smoke storm. Still a lot of smoke and haze above the inversion so enjoy the brief reprieve while it lasts since this should be the coolest, less smoky day this week. Still a no burn day since all things being equal, we go right back into the poor air quality as inversions break and winds shift. 24hr Outlook *** NO Burn day *** *** Forecast AQIs in the USG range of 101-150 AQI *** We get less of a delta influence tomorrow as it slowly erodes ahead of the well-advertised heat wave on tap for Labor Day Weekend. This will continue our no burn conditions through most of next week with widespread temperatures topping 105 degrees for afternoon highs early in the week. More smoke should move in with the weaker onshore gradients expected. |
