Air Quality Index for Maryland

The highest AQ index in Maryland (as of 1:00 EST) is currently the Lower Eastern Shore area. Particle Pollution (PM2.5) is measuring at 52 (Moderate). This means air quality is acceptable. However, there may be a risk for some people, particularly those who are unusually sensitive to air pollution.

Over the next few days, the highest Particle Pollution (PM2.5) will be in the Metro Baltimore area. It is forecasted to be Good, meaning air quality is satisfactory, and air pollution poses little or no risk.

A strong low pressure system will impact the region over the next several days. Winds will turn breezy as clean, dry air filters into the state. Fine particulates will be held well within the Good AQI range for the remainder of the workweek and into the weekend. For the latest air quality information, please visit our website here. -MDE
