…AIR QUALITY ALERT IS IN EFFECT FOR WEDNESDAY JUNE 7…

The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection has issued a Code RED Air Quality Alert for all of Central Pennsylvania due to widespread smoke impacting the state from forest fires across eastern Canada.

A Code RED Air Quality Alert means that air pollution concentrations within the region are unhealthy, and the general public may experience mild health effects. Members of sensitive groups may experience more serious health effects. The effects of air pollution can be minimized by avoiding strenuous activity or exercise outdoors. Keep outdoor activities light and short. Go indoors if you start having symptoms. Sensitive groups consider moving all activities indoors.
