Multiple U.S. states have been asked to refill their vehicles with gas in the early morning or evening due to poor air quality reports.
Numerous states are subject to air quality alerts issued by the National Weather Service (NWS) throughout Friday. Residents in affected areas of these states are asked to "take whatever voluntary steps [they] can to reduce emissions that contribute to ozone formation," which includes driving less and, in some cases, waiting until after 6 p.m. local times to refill vehicles, according to published reports.
