December Air Tanking

Dan Bross

Fairbanks is on track for the worst December air quality on record.  Cold stagnant conditions combined with emissions from heating and other sources are resulting in fine particulate pollution in excess of federal standards.  As KUAC’s Dan Bross reports, with more extreme cold in the forecast, the prognosis isn’t good.
