Topanga Canyon fire prompts air-quality regulators to extend 'smoke health advisory'

IAP Map Palisades Fire

The Palisades fire in the Topanga Canyon area is prompting air-quality regulators to extend a "smoke health-advisory" through at least the rest of today.

They say the fire is expected to keep sending potentially hazardous levels of air pollutants into MANY parts of L.A. County.

Anyone who can smell or see smoke or ash should avoid strenuous physical activity,  and stay inside their homes or other buildings as much as possible with the windows and doors closed.

An army of firefighters continues to battle a suspicious 1,325-acre brush fire in Pacific Palisades today as evacuation orders affecting about 1,000 people remained in effect.

There was zero containment of the Palisades Fire as of Sunday, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department and county fire. An update on the progress against the blaze was expected at 10 a.m. Monday.
