AQABMX The Jefferson County Department of Health has issued a Code Red Air Quality Alert for Jefferson and Shelby Counties for Tuesday, March 11. Under Code Red conditions, particulate matter concentrations are expected to reach unhealthy levels. People with heart or lung disease, older adults, and children should avoid all physical activity outdoors. Everyone else should avoid prolonged or heavy exertion. JCDH recommends the following actions during an air quality alert for particulate matter. Avoid exposure to wood, forest, or agricultural smoke. Reduce outside activity. Walk instead of jog. Do not exercise near busy roads. Plan outdoor activities for days when particle levels are lower. Limit driving and engine idling. Combine errands. Use the bus or carpool to work. Avoid use of gasoline powered lawn and garden equipment. Outside particulate matter can affect indoor air quality, especially when outdoor levels are high. Keep windows and doors closed to prevent further circulation of particles. You can further reduce indoor particle levels by eliminating tobacco smoke, limiting cooking with wood, coal, oil, or natural gas, and limiting the use of candles, incense, and household cleaners. If breathing becomes difficult, move indoors.
