The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality has issued an Air Quality Advisory for ozone, which is IN EFFECT UNTIL 10 PM PDT THIS EVENING. An Air Quality Advisory for Ozone has been issued. High levels of ozone in the lower atmosphere in the region combined with forecasted conditions will cause air quality to reach unhealthy levels at times through 10 PM PDT this evening. This can cause burning eyes, runny nose, aggravate heart and lung diseases, and aggravate other serious health problems. Limit outdoor activities if possible. Please follow medical advice if you have a heart or lung condition. More information about air quality can be found at: www.orcaa.org www.swcleanair.gov www.oregon.gov/DEQ www.lrapa.org
