on the bottom is a screenshot of a weather app showing AQI of 110 and labeled unhealthy

Git gud.
how much time does it take to acquire Chilean citizenship?
5 years to settle, however, good news for you, ANY oceanside city have clean air, closer you to ocean, cleaner air will be
on that topic - where does the O³ come from?
a fellow breezy weather user!
you can tap on it to read more about it.Ground-level ozone (O3) is a major component of smog. Although the same molecule, ground-level ozone can be harmful to human health, unlike stratospheric ozone that protects the earth from excess UV radiation. It is formed from photochemical reactions with pollutants such volatile organic compounds, carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides (NO,) emitted from vehicles, and industry. Due to the photochemical nature, the highest levels of ozone are seen during periods of sunny weather. Exposure to excessive ozone can cause problems breathing, trigger asthma, reduce lung function and lead to lung disease.
Is that screenshot from the main app or a widget? Because my app looks bright even in dark mode.
Turn off the “follow day/night” setting and it will be dark mode in the day as well
I also use this app! It’s great, isn’t it?? ^_^
Ah apparently, it is more common to occur naturally in the countyside because the NOx from fossil fuels will react with the ozon to create NO² and O².
I think the O3 ozone is a byproduct of combustion at high temperatures and not ideal combustion ratios. But I don’t know a whole lot about it.
Ozone if formed usually when UV rays hit Oxygen(O2), and if forms protective ozone layer high up in atmosphere. But ground level ozone like this are formed from other pollutants in the presence of sunlight. That is factory and vehicle’s pollutants react on sunlight and creates ozone which is harmful
You’re definitely not from Delhi lol. The AQI over there is 436.
that’s brutal haha. we had this(crossing 400) a couple months ago.
Imagine being old and/or with respiratory problems in this pollution. but it helps “our economy”!How are people living like that daily? How do they all swim in that crazy polluted river? How are billions of them over there not getting crazy amounts of cancer?
Millions, not billions. India’s total population is around 1.4 billion, according to the older census, and by now, it’s somewhere around 1.7 billion.
Delhi and neighboring areas have garbage infrastructure, too much population density, high levels of corruption and lawlessness. Punjab is directly to blame for Delhi’s pollution - stubble burning is the reason for high levels of pollution. If you go back in history, mono-culture ruined Punjab.
Yeah. I basically breath industrial fumes here all the time when I go out. Long Live Air Purifiers. Can’t wait to move out from this Lung Cancer Tomb.
very cute. this winter in Sarajevo (my city) the AQI was about ~500. we barely breathe down here. the worst part is that Sarajevo is surrounded by several mountains and lacks wind during the winter.
Where I can download that?
the name is breezy weather. it’s libre and open source.

Izzy’s fdroid repo: https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/org.breezyweatherThank you!
Suprisingly bad
Just here to let you all know that mine is currently 1. Living in the middle of nowhere has its benefits, at times
that one is also probably a round-off error.
World map with real time AQI https://aqicn.org/map/world
thanks for the link!
Hell yeah, the high winds which have me in a red flag wildfire warning have temporarily lowered the AQI to 18. It’s normally like 60 and if that wildfire happens it will spike to 150-250 for several weeks.
Edit: It’s “Bad”, but about what I expected with the Autobahn nearbyOxygen masks are going to be a great business in the near future, maybe it would be a good idea to invest in stocks 🤔
follow what rich people are buying and you’ll never be disappointed.
Love the app… I have 185 today. Who can score higher today? Hah 🫠
And I’m sitting here with
half that and having issuesless than a third of thatwhat app is this?
edit: found it thank you https://github.com/breezy-weather/breezy-weather
Where is this from? I mean the place
Mine is pretty low, surprising as I live in a big city.
The biggest nearby city is Seattle, and it’s pretty good there
