Two websites relevant to air quality in the Baltimore MD, Washington DC, and Northern VA region have been updated and provide very useful information. The old Air-Watch site merged with Clean Air Partners; the Clean Air Partners Monitoring Sites portion of their website provides real-time AQI values for MD, DC, and Northern VA. The only downside is you still have convert AQI to concentration and it is not simple to save out an image. Air quality levels are good today, though seem to be rising this afternoon.
The other website of note is UMBC Weather, a good summary of thumbnail images and links to current weather and air quality conditions. I have added both of these websites to our resource links on the right side of our main page.
