 Today, Denver’s air quality is classified as good to moderate, providing a generally comfortable environment for outdoor activities. At 7 AM Mountain Standard Time, the Air Quality Index for particulate matter (PM2.5), a common urban pollutant, was recorded at 44, which falls within the good range and suggests minimal risk to public health. Ozone concentrations are also expected to remain in the good to moderate range throughout the day.

People who are unusually sensitive to ozone, such as those with asthma or other respiratory issues, should consider limiting prolonged or heavy outdoor exertion between noon and 8 pm. Ozone tends to rise during afternoons due to increased sunlight and heat, potentially leading to temporary respiratory discomfort for sensitive individuals. Even during a moderate ozone forecast, it is prudent for at-risk groups to take these precautions.

Other major air pollutants, including carbon monoxide and nitrogen dioxide, are also expected to stay in the good category today. Visibility for the Denver metro area is forecast to be good to moderate, with no significant haze or smoke impacting the region. There are no current advisories issued for ozone or any other pollutant for Denver and the Front Range Urban Corridor until at least 4 p.m., indicating that average residents face low risk from air pollution at this time.

Denver’s air quality trends this August reflect a high proportion of days within safe air quality limits, with historical data showing very low risks of health issues from pollution. However, city officials remind residents that ground-level ozone, while not alarming today, can be a serious health concern on action alert days. Everyone can contribute to better air quality by reducing car trips and emissions, especially during the summer months when ozone levels are most susceptible to spikes.

Monitoring will continue hourly, and advisories may be issued if conditions change due to weather, emissions, or other factors. For now, Denver remains a safe city for outdoor enjoyment, with only mild cautions for those especially sensitive to ozone and airborne particulates[1][3][4].
