Air quality today
The air quality in Fort McKay is currently classified as Moderate. The primary pollutant identified is PM2.5 (fine particles), with a measured concentration of 9.4 µg/m³ based on two valid observations reported through OpenAQ.
These measurements indicate that fine particulate levels are present at the referenced value, while no data for PM10 is available. 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 Fort McKay air‑quality feed currently draws from a single monitoring location, providing data for two measured pollutants: ozone (O₃) and fine particulate matter (PM₂.5). Both substances are reported from the same sensor reading taken on 2026‑02‑10 at 22:00 UTC, so the dataset reflects a snapshot rather than continuous coverage. Because only one station contributes, the spatial representation of air quality across Fort McKay is limited to that point location.
The most recent values show ozone at 0.015 ppm and PM₂.5 at 9.4 µg/m³. For each pollutant the minimum, median, and maximum recorded during the last three days are identical to these single readings, indicating no observed variation within the available data window. The ten‑percentile and ninety‑percentile statistics also match the same figures, reinforcing that the dataset consists of a solitary measurement rather than a distribution.
Overall, two rows of data fall into the “last 3 days” freshness bucket, while there are no entries from today, the past week, or older periods. This means the most up‑to‑date information is just over a day old, and there is currently no historical depth to assess changes over time. Users should keep in mind that air quality can differ across neighborhoods and throughout the day, so this single point reading provides only a limited view of conditions in Fort McKay.

Data notes
The current dataset for Fort McKay includes two valid measurements and was updated within three days, with the latest refresh recorded at 2026‑02‑10T22:00:00+00:00. These values provide a recent snapshot of ambient conditions, but air quality can differ across neighborhoods and change throughout the day, so this information reflects only the specific times and locations sampled.
