When are Air Quality Alerts Issued?

Air Quality Alerts are issued in the late afternoon when ground-level ozone and/or fine particle concentrations are predicted to be elevated on the following day in your area. Air Quality Alerts are also issued during times when ground-level ozone and/or fine particle concentrations unexpectedly reach, or are approaching, unhealthy levels in your area based on monitored values.

Air Quality Alerts are issued automatically in the form of a text message sent directly to your e-mail address or cell phone.
