CLEVELAND, Ohio — Just when Northeast Ohio residents are allowed to catch their breath, they’re told to hold back again.
The increasing heat is resulting in more ground-level ozone in the region, and that’s resulted in the Northeast Ohio Areawide Coordinating Agency issuing an air quality advisory on Thursday for Cuyahoga, Ashtabula, Geauga, Lake, Lorain, Medina, Portage and Summit counties.Children, the elderly and people with breathing difficulties are advised to limit outdoor activities because they’re most likely to be affected by the air quality.
Much of northern Ohio will be under a heat advisory from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Friday. The National Weather Service warns that temperatures could reach the mid-90s, but it could feel like 104 degrees because of the humidity. NOACA officials say residents could help keep ozone levels down by driving less, waiting to mow the lawn until the evening, and working from home if possible.
The heat wave will be short. Storms are expected Friday night and Saturday morning, and cooler air will follow behind. Highs on Saturday will be in the low 80s and on Sunday will stay in the upper 70s.
