Air Quality Alert issued July 14 at 2:56PM EDT by NWS Buffalo NY
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation at Albany has issued an Air Quality Health Advisory for Fine Particulates from midnight tonight to midnight EDT Wednesday night. Air quality levels in outdoor air are predicted to be greater than an Air Quality Index value of 135 for Fine Particulates. The Air Quality Index...or AQI...was created as an easy way to correlate levels of different pollutants to one scale. The higher the AQI value...the greater the health concern. When pollution levels are elevated...the New York State Department of Health recommends that individuals consider limiting strenuous outdoor physical activity to reduce the risk of adverse health effects. People who may be especially sensitive to the effects of elevated levels of pollutants include the very young and those with pre-existing respiratory problems such as asthma or heart disease. Those with symptoms should consider consulting their personal physician. For additional information, please visit the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation website at, https://on.ny.gov/nyaqi, or call the Air Quality Hotline at 1 800 5 3 5, 1 3 4 5.
About
The Parallel, Bova, and Cain Hollow Cottages provide comfortable accommodations within Allegany State Park, New York's largest state park at 65,000 acres. Operated by a private-sector partner under contract with State Parks, the three cottage areas each contain 15 units spread across the Quaker Area (Parallel and Cain Hollow) and Red House Area (Bova). These are fully-equipped rentals with kitchens including refrigerator, range, and microwave, bathrooms with showers, heating systems, and provided linens and utensils. Bova cottages accommodate up to 6 guests while Parallel and Cain Hollow cottages sleep up to 4. Each cottage features an outdoor grill and picnic table. Pets are permitted in designated units with a maximum of 2 pets per cottage, requiring current rabies inoculation proof at check-in. Bova and Parallel cottages remain open year-round, making them suitable for winter activities like cross-country skiing and snowmobiling on the park's 90 groomed miles. Cain Hollow operates seasonally from April through November. The park offers extensive amenities including bath houses, laundry facilities, a convenience store, restaurant, natural history museum, boat and bike rentals, a sandy beach, and an amphitheater. Recreation options include hiking, biking on 5 miles of paved trails, fishing, canoeing, horseback riding, and bird watching. Check-in is 3 PM and check-out is 11 AM.
