The weather agency continues to have a special air quality statement in effect for parts of Metro Vancouver, including Langley where hot and humid weather conditions are creating elevated pollution levels.
“Exposure to air pollution is particularly a concern for children, the elderly, and those who have underlying medical conditions such as lung or heart disease,” Environment Canada warns.
Those that may have been exposed to wildfire smoke should also consider taking extra precaution to reduce exposure.
“Wildfire smoke is a constantly-changing mixture of particles and gasses which includes many chemicals that can harm your health,” according to Environment Canada.
