To protect your health, check air quality levels and act as needed:
-
When Air Quality Index (AQI) levels are "Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups" (orange), sensitive groups as specified above should limit extended or intense outdoor activity.
-
When AQI is "Unhealthy" (red), everyone may experience health impacts. Sensitive groups should avoid extended time outdoors.
-
When AQI is "Very Unhealthy" (purple), sensitive groups should avoid all outdoor physical activity. Everyone else should avoid extended or intense outdoor activity.
-
When AQI is "Hazardous" (maroon), everyone should avoid all outdoor physical activity.
-
ADDITIONAL DETAILS:
To help keep indoor air clean when air quality is poor:
- Keep windows and doors closed
- Run your air conditioner and/or an air purifier
- Do not use whole house fans or swamp coolers that bring in outside air if you have other methods to stay cool
- Avoid other sources of pollution such as fireplaces, candles, incense, grilling, and gasoline-powered lawn and garden equipment
To help minimize outdoor particle pollution levels:
- Carpool, telecommute, reduce trips, or take public transportation
- Slow down if driving on dirt roads
- Stabilize loose soils
