levels have climbed into the Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups AQI
category across central and southern Minnesota. This smoke will

a code orange air quality alert Thursday for Monmouth County.
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.

...AIR QUALITY ALERT IN EFFECT UNTIL 11 PM CDT THURSDAY...
* WHAT...The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency has issued an Air
Quality Alert for fine particles pollution. The Air Quality Index
(AQI) is expected to reach the Orange or Unhealthy for Sensitive
Groups category.
* WHERE... Southwest Minnesota.
* WHEN... Until 11 PM CDT Thursday.
* IMPACTS...Sensitive groups, such as people with lung disease
(including asthma), heart disease, and children and older adults,
may experience health effects.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Smoke from wildfires in northwest Canada has
moved into southwest Minnesota behind a cold front. This smoke is
beginning to mix to the ground and fine particle levels have
climbed into the Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups AQI category across
central and southern Minnesota. This smoke will linger along a
frontal boundary that will stall over the southern part of the
state. Rainfall is expected across this same region through
Thursday and this may help reduce smoke levels in some areas.
However, it`s possible this smoke may linger through the end of the
day on Thursday.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... 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. Keep
windows closed overnight to prevent smoke from getting indoors.

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation has
issued an Air Quality Health Advisory for the following counties:
New York, Bronx, Kings, Queens, Richmond, Nassau, Suffolk,
Westchester, Rockland, Orange, Putnam.
from midnight tonight to midnight EDT Thursday night.
Air quality levels in outdoor air are predicted to be greater than
an Air Quality Index value of 100 for the pollutant of Fine
Particulates. The Air Quality Index, or AQI, was created as an easy
way to correlate levels of different pollutants to one scale. The
higher the AQI value, the greater the health concern.
When pollution levels are elevated, the New York State Department of
Health recommends that individuals consider limiting strenuous
outdoor physical activity to reduce the risk of adverse health
effects. People who may be especially sensitive to the effects of
elevated levels of pollutants include the very young, and those with
preexisting respiratory problems such as asthma or heart disease.
Those with symptoms should consider consulting their personal
physician.
A toll free air quality hotline has been established so New York
residents can stay informed on the air quality situation. The toll
free number is 1 800 5 3 5, 1 3 4 5.
