Air Quality Alert issued July 1 at 9:40AM MST by NWS Phoenix AZ
AQAPSR
The Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) has issued a
PM-10 High Pollution Advisory for the Phoenix Metro Area through
Wednesday.
This means that ongoing stagnant weather conditions may result in
local PM-10 concentrations that pose a health risk. Adverse health
effects increase as air quality deteriorates.
Coarse particulate matter - also known as PM-10 - is an air
contaminant that can aggravate heart and lung disease conditions,
especially in older adults, children, and those with asthma. A
decrease in physical activity is recommended.
Consolidate your travel, stabilize loose soils, slow down or avoid
travel on dirt roads, reduce or eliminate fireplace use, and avoid
using gas-powered lawn equipment.
For details on this High Pollution Advisory, visit the ADEQ internet
site at www.azdeq.gov/forecast/phoenix or call 602-771-2300.

taken to lessen the impact of the extreme heat.
Take extra precautions if you work or spend time outside. When
possible, reschedule strenuous activities to early morning or
evening. Know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat
stroke. Wear lightweight and loose-fitting clothing when possible
and drink plenty of water.
To reduce risk during outdoor work, the Occupational Safety and
