Scattered storms are back for Sunday afternoon, primarily between 1 and 7 p.m. Any activity eyeing the tri-state through the afternoon and evening could bring severe storms, damaging winds and flash flooding.

The audio component centers around the SS8550 PNP transistor (Q1) which serves as a driver for the passive buzzer (BZ1). This configuration allows the microcontroller to generate RTTTL tones that correspond to different air quality levels, providing musical audio feedback that matches the urgency of each situation.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has approved Pennsylvania’s request to designate Liberty-Clairton as a maintenance area, marking a significant achievement in air quality improvement.

Newly deployed sensors will fill in significant gaps in the air quality monitoring network in the Pajaro Valley region. In an area home to many people who work outside in agricultural jobs, the initiative aims to empower community decision-making for those most affected by pollutants like wildfire smoke.
