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 145 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
Robert G. Wehle State Park preserves the former estate of Robert G. Wehle along the dramatic bluffs of eastern Lake Ontario. The 1,100-acre property includes over 17,000 feet of undeveloped shoreline and cliff-top views. Unlike traditional campgrounds, overnight stays here are limited to two rental units: the Cottage Compound and a separate Cabin. The Cottage Compound sleeps up to 8 guests across the main house and guest cottage. The main house features two bedrooms with private baths, a living room with fireplace, sun porch, and fully equipped kitchen with laundry. The guest cottage adds two more bedrooms with baths and a kitchenette. An adjacent artist's studio serves as a recreation room. Weekly rentals run $2,500 during the May through October season. The park's 10+ miles of multi-use trails wind through forests and meadows to overlooks above Lake Ontario. Additional amenities include a tennis court, disc golf course, and designated picnic areas. Cross-country skiing and snowshoeing are available in winter. The cliff-side setting is spectacular but may not be suitable for families with young children.
Directions
From Syracuse, take I-81 North to Exit 41. Follow Route 178 west to the intersection with Route 3, then continue straight onto Military Road for approximately 5 miles. The park entrance is on the left.
