* WHAT...For the Air Stagnation Advisory Within the valleys in Klamath and Lake County, poor air quality will continue. This is due to an inversion and stagnant air conditions near the surface that will continue to trap pollutants. For the Freezing Fog Advisory, visibility one quarter mile or less in freezing fog and locally slick conditions. * WHERE...For the Air Stagnation Advisory, within the valleys of Klamath and Lake Counties. For the Freezing Fog Advisory, areas in the Klamath Basin near and south of Upper Klamath Lake. * WHEN...For the Air Stagnation Advisory, until 4 AM PST Friday. For the Freezing Fog Advisory, until 11 AM PST this morning. * IMPACTS...Poor air quality may cause issues for people with respiratory problems. Most outdoor burning will likely be prohibited as poor ventilation continues. Low visibility could make driving conditions hazardous. Locally slick conditions are possible. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...A strong area of high pressure remains in place. This will lead to poor mixing of the atmosphere and the trapping of pollutants. The high looks to stay in place through the week ahead.

Persons with respiratory illness should follow their physicians advice for dealing with high levels of air pollution during periods of stagnant air. If driving, slow down, use your headlights, and leave plenty of distance ahead of you.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
