Air Quality Very Unhealthy Across Parts of Southern Oregon



Some views of the Klamath Basin this morning around 6:40. Thanks again to Jim Carey with Klamath County Public Health for the photos.

Air quality is very unhealthy not only in Klamath Falls this morning, but in Shady Cove, Medford and Ashland. Grants Pass and Provolt are currently seeing unhealthy air quality readings.

Remember when air quality is unhealthy everyone may begin to experience some adverse health effects, and members of the sensitive groups may experience more serious effects.Those in sensitive groups include people with lung disease, older adults, children and pregnant women.

Air quality conditions can change rapidly so please check the Air Quality Index before you head out. You can also download the mobile app on your smart phone by searching for OregonAir.
