## extract

Air Quality Alert — Perry; Morgan; Athens; Washington; Jackson; Vinton; Meigs; Gallia; Lawrence
Severity: Unknown. Certainty: Unknown.
The Ohio Environmental Protection Agency has issued a statewide Air
Quality Advisory for the entire state of Ohio as smoke from Canadian
wildfires continues to adversely impact air quality.

Pollutants across the state are expected to range from the
'Unhealthy For Sensitive Groups' category in the southwest part of
the state to the 'Unhealthy' category in the rest of the state.
Hourly concentrations at times may reach the 'Very Unhealthy' to
'Hazardous' categories.

It is recommended, when possible, to avoid strenuous outdoor
activities, especially those with heart disease and respiratory
conditions like asthma. Watch for symptoms including wheezing,
coughing, chest tightness, dizziness, or burning in the nose,
throat, and eyes.

Protection Agency's website at epa.ohio.gov.
