Today along the Front
Loading the latest readings…
Each card shows the AQI now, by pollutant when AirNow reports more than one, the past 24 hours (hover a column for its hour) and the 3-day forecast. The forecast gives a health level and an action level; they are different things. A “Watch:” line and a shimmering gold hexagon mark a county with something to plan around today: air at Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups or worse, a Voluntary or Mandatory action day, or an air alert in effect for that county. Alerts already in effect carry the hexagon too. AQI and forecasts come from Utah DEQ’s Division of Air Quality and EPA AirNow, unchanged. The data is preliminary and not quality assured. Pollen is not part of the AQI; see Pollen.

From the desk
Check the air the way you check the weather. Health level and burn level are two different things. Pollen isn’t in the AQI. Sister to Prepare Utah and FaultLine Utah.
