LAS VEGAS (AP) - Clark County officials have issued an air quality advisory for smoke and ozone that could come from Fourth of July fireworks this weekend.
Officials from the county's Department of Air Quality and Environmental Management say smoke from fireworks and barbecues could add fine dust particles to the air that create ozone when cooked by sunlight.
Soot and ozone can aggravate those with respiratory diseases and
ozone can affect even healthy people.
