But this time it's the entire state!
Wisconsin is under an air quality watch through noon Friday, the state Department of Natural Resources said this morning.

The DNR issued the watch because of elevated levels of fine particle pollution in the air. That's microscopic dust, soot, liquid droplets and smoke particles. It comes primarily from power plants, factories and other industrial sources, vehicle exhaust, and outdoor fires.
The state's air quality is expected to reach the orange level, which is considered unhealthy for people with heart or lung disease or asthma, and for older adults and children.
