Strong high pressure over Alabama is producing a very stable airmass.
Unfortunately, stable can quickly become stagnant, and that will be the case this time as well.
The Alabama Partners for Clean Air have issued a Code Orange Air Quality Alert for Friday for Jefferson and Shelby counties.
The culprit is ozone.
Some actions you can take to help the situation include:
…carpooling or taking the bus
…postpone unnecessary travel – combine errands
…limit idling/avoid drive thrus
…mow the lawn another day
…don’t burn leaves or trash
…don’t fill you gas tank until after 6 p.m.
