The Line Fire worsened air quality to 'hazardous levels,' according to the South Coast Air Quality Management District.
The air quality across Southern California worsened to unhealthy levels after wildfires burned thousands of acres amid a record-breaking heat wave. San Bernardino and Highland residents bore the brunt of the awful conditions after the Line Fire burned 20,553 acres, sending ash and smoke into the air.
While not as bad as the surrounding fire area, much of Riverside and San Bernardino counties endured 'very unhealthy' or 'unhealthy' levels. According to the AQMD, very unhealthy levels increase the health risk to everyone in the area, while unhealthy levels could cause serious health concerns to sensitive groups.
