However, people who are unusually sensitive to ozone may experience mild health effects and should consider reducing prolonged or heavy outdoor exertion, especially between noon and 8 PM.Forecasts for the Front Range indicate that ozone concentrations will remain in the good to moderate range through Monday. Fine particulate matter, carbon monoxide, and nitrogen dioxide are all expected to stay within the good category during this period, presenting minimal risk to the general population. Visibility is also expected to remain good to moderate across Denver.A moderate air quality index is not typically dangerous for the average person, but those with respiratory conditions like asthma or other sensitivities should be cautious and consider limiting outdoor activities during peak ozone hours.
