Advisory

Air Quality Alert until 12:00AM Tuesday

The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy has extended the Air Quality Action Day through Monday July 17th for elevated levels of fine particulate (PM2.5). Air Quality Index (AQI) levels are expected to be in the Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups (AQI Orange) range. The Action Day is in effect for the following Michigan counties... Midland...Bay...Huron...Saginaw...Tuscola...Sanilac...Shiawassee... Genesee...Lapeer...St. Clair...Livingston...Oakland...Macomb... Washtenaw...Wayne...Lenawee and Monroe. Smoke originating from wildfires in west and central Canada continues to move across the state Sunday with increases in PM2.5 expected. The Air Quality Index will likely increase into the Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups (Orange) range; however, hourly concentrations reaching the Unhealthy (Red) level are possible. The smoke plume will linger across much of the Lower Peninsula on Monday. Sensitive groups, such as people with lung disease (including asthma), heart disease, and children and older adults, should limit prolonged or heavy exertion. Reduce or eliminate activities that contribute to air pollution, such as outdoor burning, and use of residential wood burning devices. Reduce vehicle trips and vehicle idling as much as possible and reduce refueling your vehicle. Keep windows closed overnight to prevent smoke from getting indoors and, if possible, run central air conditioning with MERV-13 or higher rated filters.
