>Officials in New York City have issued an air quality alert, advising more than 10 million residents to stay indoors if possible.
The alert is due to ground-level ozone, which forms when air pollution combines with warm temperatures. Temperatures are expected to surpass 80°F on Wednesday.
Ground-level ozone is a harmful pollutant that can irritate the lungs, causing coughing, throat irritation, and chest pain.
Officials warned that people with respiratory issues, young children, and the elderly should limit outdoor activities.
An Air Quality Health Advisory is in effect from 11 am to 11 pm ET for New York City, the Bronx, Kings, Queens, Rockland, and Westchester counties, as well as the Lower Hudson Valley, which includes Dutchess, Orange, Putnam, Sullivan, and Ulster counties.
