    Air Quality Alert - 10:34am Tue Jul 14 2026

    ...AIR QUALITY ALERT FOR WEDNESDAY JULY 15...

    The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy
    has issued an Air Quality Alert for Wednesday July 15, for
    elevated levels of fine particulates (PM2.5). Pollutants are
    expected to be in the Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups range, though
    there is potential for Unhealthy levels.

    The alert is in effect for all of northern Michigan. This includes
    the following counties,

    Roscommon, Charlevoix, Missaukee, Wexford, Beaver Island and
    surrounding islands, Mackinac Island/Bois Blanc Island, Manistee,
    Emmet, Iosco, Ogemaw, Presque Isle, Cheboygan, Eastern Mackinac,
    Alcona, Western Mackinac, Montmorency, Southeast Chippewa, Otsego,
    Central Chippewa, Antrim, Western Chippewa, Arenac, Leelanau,
    Kalkaska, Grand Traverse, Benzie, Alpena, Oscoda, Crawford, and
    Gladwin.

    It is recommended that, when possible, you avoid strenuous outdoor
    activities, especially those with heart disease and respiratory
    diseases such as asthma. Watch for symptoms including wheezing,
    coughing, chest tightness, dizziness, or burning in nose, throat,
    and eyes.

    You can help reduce air pollution by limiting activities, such as
    outdoor burning, and use of residential wood burning devices.

    Tips for households: Keep windows closed overnight to prevent smoke
    from getting indoors and, if possible, run central air conditioning
    with MERV-13 or higher rated filters.
