Wildfires are striking up in western states. The smoke from those fires can affect air quality across the country.
Air quality is measured on a scale of 0 to 500. As the number increases, air quality is worse and there’s more impact on human health. Anything above 100 is considered harmful to those with respiratory issues. Above 300 is harmful to the general population.
The state air quality index shows the worst air quality is in northeastern South Dakota. It’s registering in the 80s in towns like Aberdeen and Watertown.
Mike Hansen is a pulmonologist for Monument Health in Rapid City. He says air quality now is not a concern- but that can change.
