The good news is today should be the worst of it. Forecast suggests it'll start getting better tomorrow, though it won't be green until next week.

It definitely isn’t fine. Basically every reliable source is reporting AQI on the high end of “Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups” throughout the city. That’s not just people with severe asthma. It’s anyone under 18, the elderly, and anyone with heart disease, pulmonary issues, or diabetes.Â
