Air quality today
The air quality in Burns Lake, British Columbia is classified as Good. The primary pollutant measured is PM2.5. Current observations show a PM2.5 concentration of 5.9 µg/m³ and a PM10 concentration of 5.0 µg/m³ based on two valid measurements.
These values are reported through the OpenAQ platform, which aggregates data from participating monitoring stations. The reported concentrations reflect the average of the two most recent valid samples. No additional pollutants exceeded the reporting thresholds in the current dataset. Data is refreshed as new measurements become available, ensuring the displayed values represent the most recent observations. This page is informational; for health guidance, use official sources such as EPA AirNow or WHO.
Latest sensor values
PM categories follow US EPA AQI breakpoints, shown here as an estimate derived from the latest valid measurements (this project does not compute EPA NowCast/24-hour AQI yet).
What the data includes
The current station data listed for this city is focused on particulate matter (PM). Only two recent rows are available, both recorded within the last 30 days, and each row reports a single pollutant. The dataset includes measurements for PM10 and PM2.5, with the most recent update timestamped 2026-01-29 07:00 UTC. No other pollutants appear in the OpenAQ feed for Burns Lake, and there are no older or unknown‑age entries.
Both pollutants show a single reported value: PM10 is 5.0 µg/m³ and PM2.5 is 5.9 µg/m³, with the minimum, median and maximum all equal to those numbers, indicating no observed variation in the limited sample. The two rows originate from the same monitoring site, Burns Lake Fire Cent, so spatial coverage across the city is minimal. Because the data set consists of only one recent measurement per pollutant, it provides a snapshot rather than a detailed picture of how particulate levels may differ by location or over time.
