The Pima County Department of Environmental Quality is downgrading the particulate pollution advisory issued for today to an air quality watch for areas that did not receive rain.

Elevated wind speeds are still being forecast for this afternoon, however areas that received moisture are likely to produce less wind-generated dust.

PDEQ monitors air pollution in our region at 18 air quality monitoring sites. Up-to-the-hour air pollution levels are available online at the PDEQ website www.airinfonow.org or by calling the PDEQ hotline at (520) 882-4AIR.
