More Heat, Air-quality Advisories for Tuesday and Beyond in Fridley
Air-pollution health advisory in effect noon–midnight Tuesday; heat advisory through Thursday evening.
This information won't surprise you, but it could save you heat-related health trouble on Tuesday and through Thursday: Fridley and the Twin Cities are under renewed advisories for heat and bad air quality.
On Monday the Twin Cities hit a record 99 degrees, and the rest of the week looks like more of the same or very similar.
The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency on Monday extended its air-pollution health advisory to cover Tuesday from noon to midnight. As an earlier advisory did on Monday, that means people at risk for ill effects from air pollution should limit their outdoor activities in the afternoon. Try to make your trips outside in the morning instead.
