NYC Air Quality Improving, But Health Advisory Still in Effect
The air quality in New York City is improving, but a health advisory remains in effect until midnight due to unhealthy levels of fine particulate matter in the smoky air. While visibility improved on Thursday, doctors and residents in areas with high asthma rates and poor air quality are concerned about the exacerbation of pollution. Local businesses, including restaurants, are feeling the effects of the advisory. Several events were postponed or canceled on Thursday, but Governors Ball is set to kick off on Friday. People should keep an eye out for symptoms in the coming days as small particulate matter can cause inflammation days after exposure.
