Issued By: NWS Burlington VT on 6aaeor29aa
Headline: Air Quality Alert issued June 6 at 10:29AM EDT by NWS Burlington VT
Description: The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation at
Albany NY has issued an Air Quality Health Advisory for Fine
Particulates for Clinton, Essex, Franklin, and St. Lawrence counties
until 11 PM EDT this evening.

Air quality levels in outdoor air are predicted to be greater than
an air quality index value of 151 for Fine Particulates. The air
quality index, or AQI, was created as an easy way to correlate levels
of different pollutants to one scale. The higher the AQI value, the
greater the health concern.

When pollution levels are elevated, the New York State Department of
Health recommends that individuals consider limiting strenuous
outdoor physical activity to reduce the risk of adverse health
effects. People who may be especially sensitive to the effects of
elevated levels of pollutants include the very young and those with
pre existing respiratory problems such as asthma or heart disease.
Those with symptoms should consider consulting their personal
physician.
