Original Article: Red air alert issued

State air-pollution monitors are advising residents of Salt Lake and Davis counties that conditions have turned “red,” meaning those with people with respiratory problems or heart disease, the elderly and young children should refrain from prolonged outdoor exertion.

Accompanying the “red” designation is the prohibition of wood burning and the request to curtail driving as much as possible because vehicles add to unhealthy pollution levels.

Utah County’s air quality for Saturday’s rivalry game between BYU and Utah remains good.

Air quality also remains good for Saturday in Cache County and Weber County.
