After a few light showers and gusty winds last night, skies have cleared across most of the state today. Sunshine and dry conditions will help temperatures climb into the low 90s across the Valley. With stagnant air and plenty of sun, however, pollution is building.
An Ozone High Pollution Advisory is in effect today for the Phoenix metro area. If you have asthma, COPD, or other respiratory conditions, try to limit your time outdoors during the afternoon when ozone levels peak. Exposure can trigger or worsen asthma and bronchitis, reduce lung function, and make it harder for your body to fight off infections.
