Hazy conditions around Carson City due to California fires
Fires burning in central and southern California are causing a smoky haze to filter over Carson City. According to the National Weather Service in Reno, the main source of the haze is coming from the Mineral Fire burning in western Fresno County near Coalinga.
The fire has burned around 5,000 acres as of Wednesday afternoon, with the haze drifting into Western Nevada, according to Cal Fire.
Air quality in Carson City was in the “moderate” range Wednesday afternoon, according to AirNow.gov and Carson City Air AQI.
Moderate means unusually sensitive people should consider reducing prolonged or heavy exertion.
