Record high pollution levels hit Baltimore area
Baltimore air quality reached a record 3 at the southern Prince George’s area as officials from the Maryland Health Department and MWCOG warned of continuing pollution through Saturday. High temperatures and light winds limited dispersion while a stagnation advisory remained in effect. Major power usage rose but avoided voltage reductions as utilities reported near-record demand and a heat related outage impacted Little Italy for ten hours. Water usage held near a 242.5 million gallon benchmark, and Mayor Schaefer ordered sprinklers activated to support weekend demand.
