The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy
(EGLE) has issued an Air Quality Advisory for elevated levels of fine
particulate (PM2.5) across the state of Michigan. Smoke from Canadian
wildfires remains over the state through Saturday and possibly into
Sunday. Pollutants across the state are expected to be in the
Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups (USG, Orange AQI) range with some
locations reaching the Unhealthy (Red AQI) range.

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.

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.

The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy
(EGLE) has issued an Air Quality Advisory for elevated levels of
fine particulates (PM2.5) across the state of Michigan. Pollutants
are expected to be in the Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups (USG,

Smoke from Canadian wildfires remains over the state, with PM2.5
concentrations ranging from USG to Unhealthy. Some locations, mostly
in the Lower Peninsula, may experience improvements in air quality
into Friday; however, that is expected to be short-lived as
additional plumes drop into the region. High pressure settling
overhead will limit dispersion and keep smoke at the surface through
the end of the week. This sustains the threat of increased PM2.5 and
readings in the USG range will continue through Saturday, with some
locations reaching as high as the Unhealthy range.

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.

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.
