This winter, San Francisco will issue Spare the Air Alerts whenever fine particulate matter creates poor air quality.
Under a new regulation, it is illegal to burn wood, firelogs, or pellets in your fireplace, woodstove, or outdoor firepit on days when the Bay Area Air Quality Management District issues a Spare the Air Alert.
So, you may have to forego that romantic fire and/or s'mores binge for the greater good.
The 2008-09 Winter Spare the Air season runs through February 28. Check alert status online.
