Air quality
26
AQI
Good
-18 in 6hPeak ~32 @ 7 PM

AQI 26 (Good), driven by PM2.5. AQI down 18 over the last 6 hours — air quality is improving sharply. PM2.5 at 5.0 µg/m³ (AQI 28) with a 1.00 fine-to-coarse ratio and 5 mph wind — combustion smoke trapped in stagnant air, not road dust.

OK No precautions needed for the general population; unusually sensitive individuals may consider limiting prolonged outdoor exertion during the projected peak around 7 PM.
