The San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District (SJVAPCD) has issued a midnight to midnight ban of wood burning devices, including fireplaces and open fire pits, due to unhealthy levels of particulate matter in the atmosphere and a strong inversion layer.
The ban applies to four counties: Fresno, Kings, Tulare, and the SJV Air Basin portion of Kern.

According to my home air quality sensor in southeast Clovis, 45% of the days in December 2017 were at or above the 24-hr "Unhealthy" AQI level. I wonder what we'll see in January?
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of home air quality sensor do you have? What does it measure?
