Air quality

Smoke does not respect a forecast zone. It travels a thousand kilometres and lands on a city that had no fire anywhere near it.

Wildfire smoke dispersion, PM2.5 and ground-level ozone, and pollen by species.

What you get

Smoke plume dispersion

Where wildfire smoke goes, at what concentration, over the next five days — including cities far downwind of any fire.

Pollutant forecasting

PM2.5, PM10, ozone and NO₂ with AQI conversion for the local standard, not just the US scale.

Pollen by species

Grass, tree and weed counts separately, because a patient allergic to birch does not care about the composite index.
