Air Quality Alert National Weather Service Tucson AZ 1018 AM MST Fri Apr 3 2026 ...PM-10 HIGH POLLUTION ADVISORY FOR COCHISE COUNTY INCLUDING DOUGLAS ON SUNDAY... The Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) has issued a PM-10 High Pollution Advisory for Cochise County including Douglas on Sunday. An episode of strong and gusty winds is forecast to generate widespread blowing dust that may result in local PM-10 concentrations that pose a health risk. Adverse health effects increase as air quality deteriorates. Coarse particulate matter - also known as PM-10 - is an air contaminant that can aggravate heart and lung disease conditions, especially in older adults, children, and those with asthma. A decrease in physical activity is recommended. Consolidate your travel, stabilize loose soils, slow down or avoid travel on dirt roads, reduce or eliminate fireplace use, and avoid using gas-powered lawn equipment.

Pollen Index: 10.4 Pollen Level: high Predominant Pollen: Cedar/Juniper, Poplar/Aspen/Cottonwood and Elm. The pollen levels for Sunday will be falling but will remain in the high range. The cause for the falling pollen levels is falling temperatures, rising humidity, and expected precipitation in the evening which tends to wash pollen out of the air.
