The National Weather Service revised their air stagnation advisory for Benton County Lowlands, Linn County Lowlands, and Lane County Lowlands on Friday at 12:24 p.m., and it will remain in force until 4 a.m. on Saturday.
Light winds and restricted air movement will cause a period of stagnant air conditions, according to the meteorological service’s “Air Stagnation Advisory.” Over time, this situation can cause air contaminants to accumulate.
The weather service states that “people with respiratory problems may experience problems due to poor air quality.” “State air quality officials may advise—or even require—that domestic wood burning devices be kept to a minimum and that no outside burning take place. Long stretches of stagnant air can trap pollutants near the ground where people live and breathe, according to state air quality regulators. For information on any current limitations in your area, contact your local burn and air quality department. When there is a high degree of air pollution during times of stagnant air, people with respiratory illnesses should heed their doctor’s advise, particularly if your location is under an Air Quality Alert. As an alternative, you could enter your location in the search bar located on the homepage’s upper-left corner. If there is an Air Quality Alert for your area, it will be displayed at the top; if so, you can click on it to view further information.
