It’s always interesting to see the effect of fireworks on urban air quality. This is a simple snapshot of the #PurpleAir maps in U.S. and Europe tonight, with a bonus of the Colorado Front Range thrown in for good measure. Serious PM concentrations, as always on the 4th of July. Stay healthy!

Hello BlueSky! I'm officially diving into the new pool. Starting slowly and learning my way around after spending time as @ HuffmanLabDU on Twitter. Posts have mostly been from perspective of #aerosol & #bioaerosol science, including #cleanair and #IAQ science & advocacy.
