Smoke Alert Extended Through Sunday | Lansing News

Michigan’s air quality alert stays through Saturday, July 18th as wildfire smoke lingers — but there’s hope: thunderstorms could help clear things up. Southwest winds Friday and Saturday may bring relief, though smoke from Indiana and Illinois could still drift in. Sunlight might spike ozone levels, and cooler air Saturday could push more smoke toward the Great Lakes. A cold front later Saturday may bring northwest winds that bring smoke back. Officials warn fires aren’t out yet, so expect poor air quality to return late Saturday into Sunday — especially in the north. If you’re outside, keep windows closed, use AC recirculate, wear an N95 mask, and avoid strenuous activity. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
