Details: 
...AIR QUALITY ALERT IN EFFECT UNTIL 11 PM CDT TONIGHT...

* WHAT...The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency has issued an Air
Quality Alert for ozone pollution. The Air Quality Index (AQI) is
expected to reach the Orange or Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups
category.

* WHERE...Southern, central, and western Minnesota.

* WHEN...Until 11 PM CDT Tonight.

* IMPACTS...Sensitive groups, such as people with lung disease
(including asthma), heart disease, children and older adults, and
people who are active outdoors, may experience health effects.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Ground-level ozone is expected to be high
Saturday and Sunday afternoon across much of Minnesota. Mostly
sunny skies, warm temperatures, and low humidity will provide a
favorable environment for two types of pollutants (volatile
organic compounds and nitrogen oxides) to react with sunlight in
the air to produce ground-level ozone. The ozone levels will
decrease after sunset Saturday and be lower Sunday morning before
increasing again Sunday afternoon. Consider moving outdoor
activities outside of the afternoon hours.

Information: 
Sensitive groups, such as people with lung disease (including
asthma), heart disease, children and older adults, and people who
are active outdoors, should limit prolonged or heavy outdoor
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.
