The highest AQ index in Minnesota (as of 15:00 CDT) is currently the Northern Twin Cities Metro area. Ozone (OZONE) is measuring at 38 (Good). This means air quality is satisfactory, and air pollution poses little or no risk.
Over the next few days, the highest Particle Pollution (PM2.5) will be in the Mississippi River Valley area. It is forecasted to be Good, meaning air quality is satisfactory, and air pollution poses little or no risk.
Air quality is expected to be in the Green (good) AQI category across the region through the rest of the week and into the weekend, thanks to a large-scale weather pattern favoring seasonal to below normal temperatures and precipitation including the potential for heavy rain across much of central and southern Minnesota on Friday. Indications are for good air quality to continue through the weekend as well.
