Prince George, B.C. – The Air Quality Advisory for Prince George  remains in effect as   levels of PM 2.5 continue to hover around the acceptable limit mark. 

 

“I am hoping to be able to lift the advisory later today when the inversion   breaks” says Dennis Fidge, Air Pollution Meteorologist with the Ministry of Environment.  

 

The advisory means the “free fare for clean air” free rides on P.G. Transit  will continue at least until midnight tonight.

 

There is better news for the folks in Fort St. John as the air quality advisory  there has been lifted.

 

Both communities were being impacted by smoke from wildfires in north western Alberta.
