Air Quality Alert Message
Relayed by National Weather Service Albuquerque NM
357 PM MDT Tue May 10 2022
...AIR QUALITY ALERT...
The following message is transmitted at the request of the New Mexico
Departments of Health and Environment.
* WHAT...Gusty southwest winds will continue to transport wildfire
smoke toward the northeast into the evening. Diminishing winds after
sunset will allow some smoke to settle and impact communities near
and down-drainage of on-going large fires during the overnight and
Wednesday morning. Stronger southwest winds expected Wednesday
afternoon combined with continued exceptionally dry and unseasonably
warm temperatures will result in widespread critical fire conditions.
Smoke transport once again toward the northeast with increased
potential for greater coverage of nighttime smoke impacts Wednesday
night into Thursday morning. In addition to areas of dense smoke,
stronger winds on Wednesday will likely result in areas of blowing
dust during the afternoon and evening further impacting regional air
quality.
* WHERE...Areas likely to be most impacted include much of Colfax,
Mora, western San Miguel, Los Alamos, southeast Rio Arriba, Sandoval,
northern Santa Fe, and Taos counties during the next 36-48 hours.
This includes, but is not limited to, the following communities:
Angel Fire, Cimarron, Cochiti Pueblo, Espanola, La Cueva, Las Vegas,
Los Alamos, Mora, Ocate, Ohkay Owingeh, Pojoaque, Raton, Santa
Clara Pueblo, Santa Fe, Sapello, Taos, and White Rock.
* WHEN...Remainder of this afternoon through noon MDT Thursday.
* IMPACTS...Those with conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease, interstitial lung disease, lung cancer, and heart
disease will be especially vulnerable to impacts from poor air
quality, as will adults over age 65, young children, and pregnant
women if smoke concentrations become unhealthy.
* HEALTH INFORMATION...Remember, your eyes are your best tools to determine
if it is safe to be outside. Use the 5-3-1 Method available at
https://nmtracking.org/environment/air/FireAndSmoke.html.
If visibility is:
Under 5 miles, the air quality is unhealthy for young children,
adults over age 65, pregnant women, and people with heart
and/or lung disease, asthma or other respiratory illness.
Outdoor activity should be minimized.
Around 3 miles, young children, adults over age 65, pregnant
women, and people with heart and/or lung disease, asthma or other
respiratory illness should avoid all outdoor activities.
Around 1 mile, the air quality is unhealthy for everyone. People
should remain indoors and avoid all outdoor activities including
running errands. Unless an evacuation has been issued, stay inside
your home, indoor workplace, or in a safe shelter.
With the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic affecting New Mexico and with the
wildfire season underway, New Mexicans will need to take extra
precautions. Smoke from wildfires may cause people to have more
severe reactions if they are infected COVID-19. The best way to
protect against the potentially harmful effects of wildfire smoke and
to reduce the spread of COVID-19 is to stay home and create a clean
indoor air space. NMDOH offers tips here:
https://nmtracking.org/environment/air/IndoorQuality.html and
https://cv.nmhealth.org
New Mexicans will also need to take steps to keep their homes cool to
avoid heat-related illnesses. NMDOH offers tips here:
