We had 20+ for a couple of hours yesterday here in Sudbury.
I thought the rain would help but it barely rained.
It was pouring last night in the Valley, but it didn’t seem to do much for the smoke… still here this morning :(
The levels did drop significantly overnight in Petawawa but still extremely high. Pouring rain for about half an hour this morning didn’t seem to have any effect…
Wow, I didn’t think the AQHI reported numbers above 10+.
We’d been hoping for a rainy Saturday in the Ottawa Valley too.
It does on a section under the graph. It’s not 10+ right now but this is where it reports the actual index.
Yeah the website doesn’t show it but the PurpleAir map does if you go there… you can also switch to the US EPA 2.5 scale and others as well.
