...AIR QUALITY HEALTH ADVISORY FOR WILDFIRE SMOKE FROM 800 AM
TUESDAY UNTIL 900 AM WEDNESDAY...

The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment has
issued the following...

WHAT...Air Quality Health Advisory for Wildfire Smoke.

WHERE...Moffat and Rio Blanco Counties. Locations include, but are
not limited to Craig, Meeker and Rangely.

WHEN...800 AM Tuesday July 29 to 900 AM Wednesday July 30

IMPACTS...Smoke from wildfires in other states is being
transported into northwestern Colorado on Tuesday. As atmospheric
mixing increases overhead smoke will be drawn down to the surface
creating areas of moderate to heavy smoke across the advisory area
through at least Wednesday morning.

HEALTH INFORMATION...Public Health Recommendations: If smoke is
thick or becomes thick in your neighborhood you may want to remain
indoors. This is especially true for those with heart disease,
respiratory illnesses, the very young, and older adults. Consider
limiting outdoor activity when moderate to heavy smoke is present.
Consider relocating temporarily if smoke is present indoors and is
making you ill. If visibility is less than 5 miles in smoke in
your neighborhood, smoke has reached levels that are unhealthy.
