LOS ANGELES—Smoke from Central and Northern California wildfires is expected to affect areas of Los Angeles County for a second straight day Sept. 24, the South Coast Air Quality Management District said.

The heaviest smoke will be present in the upper atmosphere, so air quality index levels throughout the South Coast Air Basin, which includes the southern two-thirds of Los Angeles County, are expected to be “good” to “moderate.”
