An air quality alert remains in effect for the Memphis metropolitan area through tomorrow, according to the National Weather Service in Memphis.
The alert is due to stagnant summer air conditions that trap pollutants over the region. Officials advise residents to exercise extra caution when outdoors.
The pattern is expected to begin lifting by the start of next week, which should improve air quality in the area.
Residents are encouraged to stay informed and limit outdoor activities if possible during this period.
