Road dust advisory in effect for Houston and Burns Lake.

==discussion==
The Ministry of Environment in collaboration with the Northern Health
Authority has issued a road dust advisory for Houston and Burns Lake
because of high concentrations of dust that are expected to persist
until further notice.
Persons with chronic underlying medical conditions should postpone
strenuous exercise and consider staying indoors until the advisory is
lifted.
If you are experiencing symptoms such as continuing eye or throat
irritation, chest discomfort, shortness of breath, coughing or
wheezing, follow the advice of your health care provider,
particularly if you are elderly, have asthma, hay fever, breathing or
lung conditions or if you react strongly to dust.
