...Air Quality Advisory in effect for Friday, June 6th...

The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy
(EGLE) is continuing an Air Quality Advisory through midnight tonight
across portions of Southeast Michigan for elevated levels of fine
particulate (PM2.5) due to wildfire smoke. Pollutants within the
affected areas are expected to be in the Unhealthy for Sensitive
Groups (USG, Orange AQI) range.

The Air Quality Advisory includes the following counties...

St. Clair...Oakland...Macomb... Washtenaw...Wayne...Lenawee and
Monroe.

It is recommended that, when possible, you avoid strenuous outdoor
activities, especially those with heart disease and respiratory
diseases like asthma. Monitor for symptoms such as wheezing,
coughing, chest tightness, dizziness, or burning in nose, throat,
and eyes. Reduce or eliminate activities that contribute to air
pollution, such as: outdoor burning, use of residential wood
burning devices.

Tips for households: Keep windows closed overnight to prevent
smoke from getting indoors and, if possible, run central air
conditioning with MERV-13 or higher rated filters.
