AQALZK The ozone forecast for today is code orange...which means its time to get serious about ozone pollution in central Arkansas. The Arkansas Division of Environmental Quality and the Arkansas Division of Health have declared an Ozone Action Advisory for Today in Pulaski, Faulkner, Lonoke, Grant, Perry, and Saline Counties. Code Orange conditions are unhealthy for sensitive groups. Active children and adults, and people with respiratory disease such as asthma should limit prolonged outdoor exertion. Symptoms of ozone exposure may include shortness of breath, coughing, wheezing, headaches, nausea, and eye and throat irritation. To help reduce ozone formation, avoid driving at peak times during the day, such as lunchtime. Postpone or combine errands. Keep your car well tuned and avoid jack rabbit starts and excessive idling. Refuel motor vehicles and mow lawns during the late afternoon or evening hours only. For more information on ozone, contact Metro Plan at 501-372- 3300. For more information on health effects, call the Arkansas Division of Health at 501-661-2000. Additional information may also be obtained from the air division of the Arkansas Division of Environmental Quality at 501-682-0744.

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.
