Moreno Valley: Air Quality Alert

An air quality alert is in effect for the San Gorgonio Pass and Coachella Valley through 1 AM Saturday due to windblown dust causing harmful levels of particle pollution. Sensitive groups—including people with lung or heart disease, older adults, pregnant people, children, and those who spend significant time outdoors—face increased risk of asthma attacks and lung infections. Check current air quality levels at aqmd.gov/alertinfo to see what precautions apply: sensitive groups may need to limit outdoor activity when air quality is orange ("Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups") and avoid it when red or worse. Keep windows and doors closed, run air conditioning or air purifiers, and avoid activities that add pollution like grilling or gas-powered equipment.
