NFT: How's the air quality by you right now?

ImThatGuy : 6/6/2023 6:00 pm
I'm in North Jersey and it's real hazy and gray. If you go outside it smells like the entire town is having a BBQ

Blame Canada

Hopefully it continues to improve. I thought it seemed better yesterday morning only to have the afternoon get even worse than it had been on Tuesday.


Where I am in CT along the water it’s held up being better. The smell came back a little more but Atleast the quality is back under 200 after being over 300 yesterday. Last night of soccer so I’m hoping it continues to improve.

As I type this the sun just popped out which I couldn’t see at all yesterday despite no clouds.

(about 25 mi north/west of Manhattan), my anecdotal evidence is that it looks massively better than yesterday. I don't know the readings, but it all "looks" normal and is much less noticeable being outside.

They made a call last night to have our schools on a "minimal" (half) day, which they did not change on the fly, but as yet they have not cancelled our little league games tonight.

Yesterday my eyes were getting itchy and slight burning even inside my house. No such problems today.

So, highly unscientific but today leaps and bounds better than yesterday.

Mrs. Dunk works in Wayne (in Packanack) and she said the same thing. It looks like the AQI is about half what it was yesterday around the same time, so it's way better than yesterday (but still not good).
And now all after school activities are cancelled

that sucks
The sky in Manhattan

Is much less orange than it was at the same time yesterday. I guess that’s great but unless there’s severe rain, isn’t this going to persist all summer? Aside from a few days reprieve due to a change in wind currents.

This is probably due to my extreme ignorance but I have been asking the same question, I don't know how this ends. Does the wind blow it away, do we need rain etc?

75 degrees, but darkening some now. Particulate: 186 and says "very unhealthy.". One good side effect: made me change my air filters.
AQI ‘down’ to 93 now

here in the HV. Hopefully we’re through the worst of it, but who knows..:

Cousin in central NJ texted that it's much better right now than it was @ this time yesterday.
Just went for a run and it’s fine  
UConn4523 : 6/8/2023 6:54 pm : link
