Air quality officials strongly advise against burning wood during the no-burn day enacted due to the Mountain fire, as fine particles can trigger respiratory issues.
The South Coast Air Quality Management District declared Friday a no-burn day, requiring residents in certain Southern California areas to refrain from using wood fires.
Residents in mountain communities over 3,000 feet, Coachella Valley, and specific low-income households are exempt from the wood-burning restrictions implemented as a health precaution.
The Mountain fire, which has devastated over 20,000 acres and destroyed more than a hundred homes, leads to a smoke advisory across parts of Los Angeles County.
