The Maine Department of Environmental Protection's Bureau of Air Quality has issued an Air Quality Alert for particle pollution from 10 AM Saturday to midnight EDT Saturday night.
Particle pollution levels are expected to rise into the Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups range during the day on Saturday. Smoke from wildfires in western Ontario and Manitoba is expected to move back into Maine during the day on Saturday.

People who may be especially sensitive to the effects of elevated levels of pollutants include the very young, the elderly, those with pre-existing respiratory problems such as asthma, those with heart disease and anyone who is working hard outdoors. It is okay to be active outdoors. But if you experience symptoms such as shortness of breath, coughing, throat irritation or an uncomfortable sensation in your chest please consider limiting the intensity and duration of your outdoor activities.
