The following statement was issued by the Oklahoma department of environmental quality.

An Ozone Action Day, which can be declared by a local municipality, county or state ...


Maybe the Ohio EPA or the City of Toledo's Division of Environmental Services would issue Air Quality Alerts or Ozone Action Days.


"Ozone Action DAYS aren't a thing anymore. Now it's Ozone Action Season, May thru October. To get forecasts of ozone levels send an email to: ENV.INFORMATION@toledo.oh.gov"

Thank you to the City of Toledo Division of Environmental Services staff for distributing forecasts throughout the ozone season ...

Ozone Forecast:
Monday, June 6, 2016— Good
Tuesday, June 7, 2016 – Good
Wednesday, June 8, 2016 – Good
Thursday, June 9, 2016— Satisfactory

Does the air quality index contain a color-coded "dashboard" like the water index?
