Air Quality Alert issued August 9 at 1:25PM CDT by NWS La Crosse WI

Non-Weather Emergency Message. Not sent to IPAWS.

Effective: Sat August 9, 2025, 1:25 PM
Expires: Sun August 10, 2025, 1:30 PM

* 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...West central, east central, south central, southwest, southeast, and central Minnesota. * WHEN...From 9 AM CDT Sunday to 9 AM CDT Tuesday. * IMPACTS...Sensitive groups, such as people with lung disease(including asthma), heart disease, and children and older adults, may experience health effects. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Heavy surface smoke from many wildfires across central Saskatchewan and Manitoba will wrap around the backside of an area of low pressure system this weekend, as the low moves east across south central Canada. Poor air quality will most likely impact western Minnesota beginning Sunday morning, and then expand further east through the evening. Heavy smoke should then disperse from west to east across the state from Monday into Tuesday morning.

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.

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.
