"Air Quality Warnings Across Midwest as Pollution Levels Rise"

An air quality alert has been issued for Metro Detroit due to expected elevated levels of ground-level ozone. Pollutants are expected to combine with warm temperatures to create “bad” ozone across Metro Detroit. People in sensitive groups can avoid the poor air quality by limiting time outdoors and keeping windows closed. On an ozone action day, people are urged to avoid activities that can lead to ozone formation, including refueling vehicles, using gas-powered lawn equipment, and using charcoal lighter fluid.
