Surface smoke from Canadian wildfires, in addition to causing very poor air quality, will continue to reduce visibility down to 3/4 of a a mile in some spots. Motorists are advised to allow for extra space between them and the vehicle in front of them. The smoke are expected to begin gradually improving through the afternoon and evening hours.
The officials at the Indiana Department of Environmental Management have declared an Air Quality Action Day, in effect for Thursday and Friday, July 16 and 17.
An Air Quality Action Day for PM 2.5 has been issued. Fine particulate levels are expected to be in the very unhealthy, unhealthy, and unhealthy for Sensitive Groups range.
Here are some recommended actions that the public can take:
- Walk, bike, carpool or use public transportation.
- Avoid using the drive-through and combine errands into one trip.
- Avoid refueling your vehicle or using gasoline-powered lawn equipment until after 7pm.
- Turn off your engine when idling for more than 30 seconds.
- Conserve energy by turning off lights or setting the air conditioner to 75 degrees or above.

The officials at the Indiana Department of Environmental Management have declared an Air Quality Action Day, in effect from Friday through Monday.
Heavy smoke is lingering for the northern half of Indiana currently divided by a stationary front. The front will lift north later Friday providing a brief break in levels before a system late Saturday will bring another round of smoke. High pressure in place Sunday and Monday will recirculate the smoke over most of the state with the primary concern remaining the northern half of Indiana. This smoke, in addition to the other meteorological factors such as light winds and predicted flow from the north, will produce high PM2.5 readings.
- Friday: Very Unhealthy conditions for Northeast and North Central Indiana.
- Saturday: Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups (USG) conditions for Northeast and North Central Indiana.
