Air Quality Status Map
This map displays the NowCast AQI values, which are short-term air pollution averages (one-hour) that can reflect changing air quality conditions. The NowCast AQI uses the same color and scale as the AQI and can provide a rough estimate of how hour-to-hour pollution levels compare to 8- or 24-hour EPA health standards. NowCast AQI values change rapidly and should not be confused with official daily air pollution averages. These changing values can be used to help determine if the current hour is a good time for outdoor activities.
