It’s going to be another hot day in southeastern Pennsylvania, with temperatures in the 90s and a heat index even higher because of the humidity.
That is going to make the air quality a bit difficult for those who have breathing issues, the National Weather Service warns in an air quality alert issued Monday morning.
The air quality alert is set to remain in effect through midnight Monday, forecasters say, as ozone levels are expected to hit 109 in Bucks County on Monday, according to the forecast at www.airnow.gov.
