Air Quality Alert until 12:00AM Saturday 
The West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection has issued a statewide air quality advisory for fine particulate matter for Friday June 30. A Code Orange Air Quality Alert means that air pollution concentrations within the region may become unhealthy for sensitive groups. Sensitive groups include children, people suffering from asthma, heart disease or other lung diseases and the elderly. The effects of air pollution can be minimized by avoiding strenuous activity or exercise outdoors. N-95 masks can help reduce smoke inhalation and potential health risks.
