Good PM; mostly quiet day
Today was a fairly quiet day across the country for air quality. PM 2.5 was Good across the board, with only a few isolated Moderate hourly AQI values. NOAA’s fire hazard mapping system showed very little in terms of fires or smoke plumes.

Although it wasn’t readily clear at first glance of the true color images, upon review of Terra AOD there was an area of elevated readings in South Dakota. Upon further examination, there was an area of haze around the clouds in the region, which can be seen on the terra true color image.
