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

The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality has issued an Air
Quality Alert for Wednesday July 15, 2026 for elevated levels of
fine particulate due to wildfire smoke. Pollutants are expected to
be in the Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups with the potential for
Unhealthy, especially north.

This is a Statewide Air Quality Alert.

Plumes of smoke from Canadian wildfires are expected to move into
the region this week. The plumes will reach the Upper Peninsula this
evening, sinking into the northern Lower Peninsula overnight. Models
are showing the smoke plumes will reach the Michigan/Indiana border
Wednesday evening.

It is recommended that, when possible, you avoid strenuous outdoor
activities, especially those with heart disease and respiratory
conditions like asthma. Watch for symptoms including
wheezing,coughing, chest tightness, dizziness, or burning in the
nose, throat, and eyes. You can help reduce air pollution by limiting
activities, such as outdoor burning or 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.
