While the majority of red flag warnings for Southern California are now expired, warnings remain in place until 3 pm local time on Thursday for the Santa Susana Mountains.

The National Weather Service reported that “offshore Santa Ana winds” will continue to decrease for most of the area. However, winds of up to 25 mph, with gusts of 40 mph, will continue Thursday afternoon in the Western San Gabriel Mountains and Santa Susana Mountains.

The weather service reports that “things have started to look better” in terms of forecasts across California and areas affected by the wildfires.

It says that “even though there is no rain in the forecast, winds will switch to an onshore flow by late Thursday or Friday. This will bring higher relative humidity and less chaotic air flow, helping to reduce the wildfire risk compared to the recent days.”

Health officials have warned that there are still many reasons to be concerned as some of the evacuees who fled the Palisades and Palisades fires returned home this week. Their neighborhoods had been decimated by wildfires.

Returnees are concerned about air quality and safety.

Zoe Kahn said, “Our house is still standing,” after fleeing from her Pasadena residence. “But, there is significant smoke damage.”

She said, “We will have our home professionally cleaned and then hire an industrial hygienist who will assess any toxins still in the house so that we can be sure that it is safe for us to return to,”

The Kahns is one of many families who are concerned about the dangers that they cannot see.

Jane Williams, Executive Director of California Communities Against Toxics said during a Wednesday webinar with experts in air quality and public safety that “we cannot stress enough that you breathe in particles you can’t see.” The air quality index doesn’t tell you that they are there. When you inhale them, even for short periods, they become lodged within your lungs, and can have a huge impact on public health.
