Trilogy Air Quality
Air blowing from the Oceano Dunes can affect air quality. It can change quickly throughout the day and can be a health issue for some people. (See below for five-minute Air Quality updates)

If you are concerned about air quality, consider getting air quality alerts from the San Luis Obispo Air Pollution Control District (APCD) and tracking short term changes in air quality using the mobile app discussed below.
