WHAT...The PM2.5 AQI is expected to reach the Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups (USG) to Unhealthy level. WHERE...All of Wisconsin. WHEN...Until noon Thursday, July 31. Precautionary/Preparedness Actions: Sensitive groups: Consider rescheduling or moving all activities inside. Go inside if you have symptoms. People with asthma: Follow your asthma action plan and keep quick-relief medicine handy.

Everyone else: Keep outdoor activities shorter and less intense. Go inside if you have symptoms. Additional Details: Canadian wildfire smoke will impact Wisconsin's surface air quality over the coming days, causing the PM2.5 Air Quality Index (AQI) to range from the Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups (USG; Orange) category to the Unhealthy (Red) category. It will be possible for NowCast AQI values to reach the Very Unhealthy (Purple) category. Smoke impacts are already being observed in northern Wisconsin this morning, and the smoke is expected to slowly travel south through northern Wisconsin today. Overnight tonight into Wednesday morning, the smoke will continue to move south, impacting most of the state by noon Wednesday. The smoke is then expected to linger over the state from noon Wednesday until noon Thursday. We may see brief improvements in air quality on Thursday before smoke moves back into northern areas on Friday.

* WHAT...The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency has issued an Air Quality Alert for fine particles pollution. The Air Quality Index (AQI) is expected to reach the Orange or Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups category. * WHERE...Southwest, southeast, and south central Minnesota. * WHEN... Until 5 PM CDT Saturday. * IMPACTS...Sensitive groups, such as people with lung disease (including asthma),heart disease, and children and older adults, may experience health effects. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Northerly winds will continue transporting waves of heavy surface smoke from wildfires across Manitoba and Saskatchewan into Minnesota. Smoke will move south across all of Minnesota and linger through Saturday afternoon. The smoke will be reinforced by an area of high pressure that will create light winds and limit the dispersion of smoke. Therefore the air quality alert has been expanded to include all of Minnesota and extended until Saturday afternoon when the air quality is forecasted to improve.
Sensitive groups, such as people with lung disease (including asthma), heart disease, and children and older adults, should limit prolonged or heavy exertion. Reduce or eliminate activities that contribute to air pollution, such as outdoor burning, and use of residential wood burning devices. Reduce vehicle trips and vehicle idling as much as possible. Keep windows closed overnight to prevent smoke from getting indoors.
