It also has the PurpleAir app that directly shows the map. sells home air pollution monitors and shows their realtime results. We now zoom in on the Northeast, heading into NY City. First we present the color code for the hazard levels of this air pollution. Avoid outdoor exercise, and stay indoors if possible. We start with the hazard scale of PM2.5, which is Particulate Matter of 2.5 microns or less in diameter, which can make it to the smallest parts of the lungs, where they can cause lung damage and inflammation.

This shows the Western, Southern and then Eastward smoke movement from the fires in Canada at the tiny flame sites at 3PM EST, June 8. This shows the air currents at 3 PM EST on June 8. This shows the PM 2.5 contours and monitors for June 8th, at 4 PM, EST. This shows the prediction for tomorrow, June 9th, of Ozone plus PM Air Quality Index.
