Air quality concerns remain as the Garnet Fire continues to rapidly burn in Fresno County. An air quality alert remains in effect across Kern through Thursday, but the bulk of wildfire smoke impacts will be outside of Kern—closer to the Sierra Nevada. A dense smoke advisory is active for parts of Fresno and north Tulare County, including Kings Canyon National Park.
