Absolutely correct — also people nearby are saying that they can still smell the fire so remember we use AQI + our eyes + our noses to assess air quality risk

Even though the AQI has improved, I’d still recommend caution/precautions until the sun comes out if you’re NW of Boyle Heights/DTLA
the low clouds are trapping particulate matter in the air & the AQI does not account for things like ammonia (which was confirmed to be present & burning yesterday)

Also the AQI has improved this morning after yesterday's huge fire at a Boyle Heights warehouse WHICH ALSO BURNED TWO YEARS AGO?
The mayor will also be coming home today

A massive fire erupted in Boyle Heights near East Los Angeles, sending up a huge plume of smoke visible across the city.
