Description

The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) has declared an Air Quality Advisory through Saturday July 5th for elevated levels of Ozone and Fine Particulate (PM2.5) in the metro Detroit area. Pollutants within those areas are expected to be in the Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups (USG, Orange AQI) range. The advisory is in effect for the following Michigan counties... St. Clair...Livingston...Oakland...Macomb...Washtenaw...Wayne and Monroe. Stagnant conditions will allow for smoke from firework displays to accumulate in the metro Detroit area with improvement Saturday afternoon. For Ozone, however, conditions will be primed for potential USG concentrations Saturday afternoon. It is recommended that, when possible, you avoid strenuous outdoor activities, especially those with heart disease and respiratory diseases like asthma. Monitor for symptoms such as wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, dizziness, or burning in nose, throat, and eyes. Reduce or eliminate activities that contribute to air pollution, such as: outdoor burning, use of residential wood burning devices. Avoid activities which can lead to ozone formation. These activities include: refueling vehicles or topping off when refueling, using gasoline powered lawn equipment, using charcoal lighter fluid. Tips for households: Keep windows closed overnight to prevent smoke from getting indoors and, if possible, run central air conditioning with MERV-13 or higher rated filters.
