Full Notification

The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection has issued a Code Orange Air Quality Action Day for Fine Particulates.. until midnight EDT tonight. Sensitive individuals, including those with heart or lung disease, the elderly, and the young should limit strenuous activity and the amount of time active outdoors. Levels of fine particulates will rise into the unhealthy for sensitive groups category in southern New Jersey due to a wildfire producing smoke across southern portions of the state. An Air Quality Advisory means that air quality within the region may approach or exceed unhealthy standards.
