Have to say I was surprised to see this article:

I suppose that depends on what the definition of IS, is!

The Herald was quoting THIS PRESS RELEASE from NH DES

The DES issued THIS AS A FOLLOW UP.

Moderate vs Unhealthy. It seems to me that in the initial press release the state meant to say unhealthy for sensitive groups, but instead just issued a warning of unhealthy.

Now the question is what is an "unusually sensitive person"? Someone with respiratory problems? The state site really isn't clear.
