summer smog
Hot weather haze
Summer smog is air pollution formed when sunlight triggers chemical reactions among vehicle emissions and industrial pollutants, producing a hazy, harmful atmosphere.
Unlike winter smog from coal burning, summer smog—also called photochemical smog—peaks on hot, sunny days and irritates lungs and eyes: The summer smog advisory warned against outdoor exercise.
