The Shelby County Health Department has issued a Code Orange Ozone

values that will be unhealthy for sensitive groups. These values will
exceed the Environmental Protection Agency's federal safe health
standard. The Shelby County Health Department recommends that
sensitive groups which include active children and adults, and
people with respiratory disease, such as asthma, limit prolonged
outdoor exertion.
