Code Red Air Quality Today

Unhealthy Air Conditions for All Groups.

Today's air quality index is red, or unhealthy, according to AIRNow. Active adults and children, especially those with sensitive conditions like asthma, should avoid prolonged or heavy physical activity outside today. Everyone else, especially children, should reduce prolonged or heavy exposure outdoors. Keep hydrated, do not drive if you can help it, and try not to use heavy machinery or mow your lawn during the day. Yesterday's heat wave prompted AIRNow to don a "code orange" unhealthy for sensitive groups label. Stay cool with Woodbridge Patch's articles on cooling centers.
