このコンテンツについて

Today in Phoenix, the air quality is generally moderate, with key pollutants being ozone and particulate matter. The current Air Quality Index for ozone stands at 80, which falls into the moderate range. This means air quality is acceptable, but there may be a risk for people who are unusually sensitive to air pollution. The maximum 8-hour average ozone concentration is measured at 64 parts per billion.

For particulate matter, the PM10 level is at 51 AQI, also in the moderate range, with a 24-hour average concentration of 56 micrograms per cubic meter. Fine particulate matter, PM2.5, is measured at 38 AQI with a 24-hour average of 6.9 micrograms per cubic meter, which is considered good and does not pose a health risk for the general population.

Real-time readings confirm that these levels are consistent with recent trends in the Phoenix area, where air quality has fluctuated but remained mostly within the good to moderate range for the past 24 hours. This means that residents can generally continue with normal outdoor activities, but those with respiratory conditions or who are particularly sensitive to air pollution might want to limit prolonged outdoor exertion during peak ozone hours in the afternoon and early evening.

As temperatures rise during the summer, ozone levels tend to increase due to strong sunlight and heat, so it is wise for sensitive groups to remain informed and take precautions if forecasts predict higher pollution levels in the coming days. For now, Phoenix’s air is mostly safe for outdoor activity, with only minimal restrictions recommended for sensitive individuals.[1][2][3]
