...AIR QUALITY ALERT FOR HARMFUL FINE PARTICLE POLLUTION LEVELS DUE
TO WILDFIRE SMOKE...

* WHAT...The South Coast AQMD has issued an air quality alert due to
  increased fine particle pollution from wildfire smoke.

* WHERE...in the Temecula and Aguanga valleys. Levels of particle
  pollution can vary by time and location depending on fire activity
  and local weather conditions.

* WHEN...from noon Saturday until 8 AM Sunday.

* IMPACTS... Particles in wildfire smoke can get deep into the lungs
  and cause serious health problems such as heart attacks, strokes,
  asthma attacks, and difficulty breathing. Everyone can be
  affected, but sensitive groups such as people with lung or heart
  disease, older adults, people who are pregnant, children, and those
  who spend a lot of time outdoors are at greater risk.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

To protect your health, if you smell or see smoke:

* Remain indoors with windows and doors closed
* Avoid intense outdoor physical activity
* Run your air conditioner and/or an air purifier
* If you must be outdoors, keep the time brief and wear a well-
      fitting N-95 mask
* Do not use whole house fans or swamp coolers that bring in outside
      air if you have other methods to stay cool
* Avoid other sources of pollution such as fireplaces, candles, incense,
      grilling, and gasoline-powered lawn and garden equipment
