The Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) has issued an
Ozone High Pollution Advisory for Flagstaff through Thursday.
This means that forecast weather conditions combined with existing
ozone levels are expected to result in local maximum 8-hour ozone
concentrations that pose a health risk. Adverse health effects
increase as air quality deteriorates.
Ozone is an air contaminant which can cause breathing difficulties
for children, older adults, as well as persons with respiratory
problems. A decrease in physical activity is recommended.
You are urged to car pool, telecommute, or use mass transit. The use
of gasoline-powered equipment should be reduced or done late in the

BAROMETRIC PRESSURE
The air that makes up our atmosphere exerts a pressure
on the surface of the earth. This pressure is known as atmospheric pressure. It is measured in inches/Hg. Generally, the more air above an area, the higher the atmospheric pressure. Barometric pressure changes with local weather conditions, making barometric pressure an important and useful weather forecasting tool. High pressure zones are generally associated with fair weather, while low pressure zones are generally associated with poor weather.
For forecasting purposes, the absolute barometric pressure value is generally less important than the change in barometric pressure. In general, rising pressure indicates improving weather conditions, while falling pressure indicates deteriorating weather conditions.
