PHOENIX — As winds lighten up, ozone pollution will build up in the Valley.
An Ozone High Pollution Advisory has been issued for the Phoenix area Friday and Ozone High Pollution Watches are in effect Saturday and Monday.
If you have a respiratory condition, like asthma or COPD, limit your time outside or you could have trouble breathing.
Air quality in the Valley should improve a bit on Sunday as winds pick up, but that will lead to increased wildfire danger again across northern Arizona.
Temperatures will stay in the 90s over the next several days and early morning lows will be in the upper 50s to mid 60s across the Phoenix metro area.
