The highest AQ index in Minnesota (as of 23:00 CDT) is currently the South Central Minnesota area. Particle Pollution (PM2.5) is measuring at 51 (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 Ozone (OZONE) will be in the Central Minnesota area. It is forecasted to be Good, meaning air quality is satisfactory, and air pollution poses little or no risk.
Widespread clouds and seasonal temperatures will keep air quality in the Green (Good) category statewide on Sunday. Cloud cover is expected across much of the state again Monday, and a line of thunderstorms is expected to move across the state in the evening. Air quality should remain in the Green (Good) category statewide Monday.
