An Air Stagnation Advisory is in effect through Thursday morning at 10:00 a.m. for much of southern Oregon.

Forecasters at the National Weather Service said poor air quality will continue. This is due to an inversion and stagnant air conditions near the surface that will continue to trap pollutants.

The Advisory area includes central Douglas County and its eastern foothills, Josephine and Jackson counties, eastern Curry County, the south-central Oregon coast and surrounding areas. It applies to Roseburg, Grants Pass, Medford, Cave Junction and nearby communities.

Poor air quality may cause issues for people with respiratory problems. State air quality agencies recommend that no outdoor burning take place, and that residential wood burning devices be limited as much as possible.
