The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection has issued a code red air quality alert Thursday for Middlesex and Mercer Counties in New Jersey.
A code red air quality alert means that air pollution concentrations within the region are unhealthful for the general population. The effects of air pollution can be minimized by avoiding strenuous activity or exercise outdoors.
