The Idaho Department of Environmental Quality has issued an air quality notice for north central Idaho, including Nez Perce, Clearwater, Idaho, Latah, and Lewis counties, river corridors, and surrounding areas.

Wildfire smoke and changes in the weather pattern have put air quality in the moderate category, and conditions may fluctuate based on fire activity and wind.

People who are unusually sensitive to air pollution may be impacted, and should consider reducing prolonged or heavy exertion.  (Idaho Department of Environmental Quality)
