Those who are especially sensitive to ozone are advised to limit their level of exertion outside today.
Jamie Donnelly The Pima County Department of Environment Quality issued an advisory for ground-level ozone air pollution for the Tucson metropolitan area on Wednesday.
PDEQ advises those who are especially sensitive to ozone to limit their level of exertion outside between noon and 6 p.m., when elevated levels of ozone pollution are more likely to occur, the news release said. Intense physical outdoor activity causes faster and deeper breathing, which allows ozone to get into the parts of the lungs that are more likely to be injured.
