PHOENIX — A ground stop was issued for departures headed to Phoenix Sky Harbor on Sunday morning.

Thanks Gov. Hobbs and Mayor Gallego.
Ugh....
Phoenix’s air quality is often affected by fine particulate matter (PM2.5) from vehicle emissions.
Another reason to get out of your cars and start thinking about your family and the condition of the atmosphere.
Take public transit, carpool, bicycle the list goes on.
