    Valley air about to get worse as wildfire smoke has nowhere to go By Corin Hoggard and Dale Yurong Tuesday, September 29, 2020 FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- Air quality is about to take a turn for the worse as a changing weather pattern will combine with wildfires to fill the Central Valley with smoke again. The last few months have produced a stretch of the worst air quality on record, according to the Air Pollution Control District. Satellite images show smoke gently blowing from several California fires out to the Pacific Ocean, a weather pattern keeping the Valley's air relatively clean for several days now. "Right now we're seeing the smoke aloft," said Maricela Velasquez of the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District. "It's above us. But as the week goes through, we'll continue to see that smoke come onto the Valley floor." Here's how: When you have a fire in the Central Valley -- which is essentially just a bowl -- the smoke can usually get out and air quality won't be bad everywhere. But when a high pressure system comes in, it essentially puts a lid on the bowl and the smoke has nowhere to go so it just collects on the Valley floor. "The blocking high, basically, once it sits over a certain spot it likes to stay there for quite a while," said meteorologist Carlos Molina of the National Weather Service in Hanford. Forecasters at the NWS say the lid will sit on our bowl for at least a week. Air Quality Science Director Jon Klassen of the Valley Air District said, "We're expecting that to continue in the coming days." By that time, our air will have collected smoke from the Creek Fire, the SQF Complex Fire, and even more recent fires to our west, like the Glass Fire in the Bay Area.

    Yolo Emergency Management Annual Report 2015-2016 Message from the Emergency Services Director The Yolo County Office of Emergency Services is the lead agency responsible for countywide emergency management services in Yolo County. The office assists with all hazards disaster preparedness, response, recovery and mitigation efforts throughout the Yolo Operational Area under a Shared Services Agreement with the cities of Davis, West Sacramento, Winters and Woodland, the Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation, and Yolo County Housing. I am pleased to present to you our 2015-2016 Annual Report. As you will see upon review, we have continued to strengthen our program and progress with our partners in developing a well-structured and synchronized emergency management program throughout Yolo County. We look forward to another year of ensuring that all of our communities are prepared for all hazards. Jill Cook Deputy County Administrator Mission/Vision Yolo County and its partner organizations work collectively through an organized planning, preparedness, training, mitigation and evaluation effort to ensure that all of our community is reasonably protected and prepared for all hazards. Mitigation Mitigation measures may be implemented prior to, during, or after an incident to help reduce or eliminate long-term risk to persons or property, or lessen the actual or potential effects or consequences of an incident. In 2016, Yolo County began consultations with CalOES regarding the 2018 Yolo Operational Area Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan update. A tentative schedule has been established to begin the update process with a kickoff meeting in the spring of 2017: Preparedness Since it is not possible to prevent or mitigate every hazard that poses a risk, we use preparedness measures to reduce the impact of hazards by taking certain actions before an emergency occurs.
