ATLANTA - Because of the predicted concentrations of ground-level ozone, air quality in metro Atlanta, including the Hall County area, is predicted to be unhealthy for sensitive groups Monday.

The Clean Air Campaign has issued a Code Orange Smog Alert, meaning air is more likely to be unhealthy for more people. Children, people who are sensitive to ozone, and people with heart or lung disease should limit prolonged outdoor exertion during the late afternoon or early evening when ozone levels are highest.
