The air quality forecast is "moderate" this week due to particle pollution.
The forecast pollen levels are "medium" over the next four days, with juniper and ash listed as the predominant pollen types.
Even though it's winter, the UV index is "moderate" from 11 a.m. through 1 p.m., meaning a sunburn could happen in 45 minutes for some people, so grab a hat if you're outside for that long around midday.
