Welcome to Philly, LeBron

Instant analysis: https://t.co/QhTbwdSwsJ

[Mayor Cherelle L. Parker @PhillyMayor]

Philadelphia is under a Code Purple Air Quality Alert for particulate matter due to wildfire smoke from Canada.

This alert means the air is very unhealthy to breathe. Please protect yourselves by staying indoors, unless you absolutely need to be outdoors. If you have to be outside, please wear a well-fitted N-95 or KN-95 mask.

I want the people of Philadelphia to know that our City government is taking every step necessary to protect your health.

Please check in on your neighbors who may need attention. We will get through this significant weather-related health event together.
