Persistent Poor Air Quality in Michigan and Chicago: A Growing Concern
TL;DR
Elevated levels of ozone and smoke pollution are contributing to poor air quality in Michigan, with hot and humid weather and isolated to scattered storms expected. While some models suggest a slow decline in smoke pollution, it is advised to wait and see the improvement before assuming a significant change. Temperatures will peak today and gradually decrease through Sunday, with a potential bounce back in weather conditions for the 4th of July.
