XAir Quality Alert issued July 15 at 10:24AM EDT by NWS Marquette MI

The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy
(EGLE) has issued an Air Quality Alert for July 15 and July 16 2026,
for elevated levels of fine particulate due to wildfire smoke.
Pollutants are expected to range from Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups
in the south to Unhealthy in the north. Hourly concentrations at
times may reach Very Unhealthy to Hazardous.

This is a Statewide Air Quality Alert.

Plumes of smoke from Canadian wildfires will continue moving into
the region this week. The plumes as of Wednesday morning have
reached the Upper Peninsula, and will continue sinking south,
reaching the Michigan/Indiana border Wednesday evening.

It is recommended that, when possible, you avoid strenuous outdoor
activities, especially those with heart disease and respiratory
conditions like asthma. Watch for symptoms including
wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, dizziness, or burning in the
nose, throat, and eyes. You can help reduce air pollution by limiting
activities such as outdoor burning or use of residential wood
burning devices.

Tips for households:

Keep windows closed overnight to prevent smoke from getting indoors
and, if possible, run central air conditioning with MERV-13 or
higher rated filters.
