DES MOINES, Iowa—An Air Quality Alert has been issued for all of Iowa.

...Air Quality Alert for all of Iowa until 12 PM Monday...

The Iowa Department of Natural Resources has issued an Air Quality
Advisory until noon Monday for all of Iowa.

The smoke plume from the Canadian wildfires that entered Iowa last
Thursday afternoon, continues to impact the state. The most
persistent smoke had been in northwest portions of the state.
Until the plume clears around noon on Monday, fine particulate
levels over the EPA health standard are expected, and sensitive
groups should take precautions.

Sensitive groups include the elderly, those with respiratory or
heart disease, and children. The Iowa Department of Natural
Resources recommends that individuals in these sensitive groups
limit prolonged outdoor exertion until air quality conditions
improve.
