Highs will be back in the 90s through Friday, but a cold front will cool us down this weekend. Oh, snap!
Don’t forget about the storms this weekend. Be sure to stay weather ready!
KNOZONE ACTION DAY
The officials at the Office of Sustainability for the City of Indianapolis have called for a Knozone Action Day on Thursday, June 30 for Marion county.
This Knozone Action Day will be in effect from 12:00 am to 11:59 pm.
A Knozone Action Day means that a combination of the high temperatures, light winds, and other factors, are expected to produce conditions where high levels of ozone emissions may exceed federally mandated standards.
Here are some recommended actions that the public can take to reduce ozone-forming emissions:
- Walk, bike, carpool, or use public transportation.
- Avoid using the drive-through and combine errands into one trip.
- Avoid refueling your vehicle or using gasoline-powered lawn equipment until after 7 pm.
- Turn off your engine when idling for more than 30 seconds.
- Conserve energy by turning off lights or setting the air conditioner to 75 degrees or above.
