Denver’s air quality today is in the moderate category with an Air Quality Index value of 64 for particulate matter measured at 3 PM on Monday. This means air quality is generally acceptable, but there could be a minor health concern for individuals who are unusually sensitive, especially to ozone and small particles. For these sensitive groups, including those with respiratory conditions, reducing prolonged or heavy outdoor activity from noon to 8 PM is recommended, though most residents will not be affected.

Ozone levels are forecasted to remain in the good to moderate range both today and tomorrow. Particulate matter, carbon monoxide, and nitrogen dioxide concentrations are all expected to stay in the good category through Tuesday, indicating that overall air pollution remains relatively low in Denver. Furthermore, visibility is expected to stay good throughout Tuesday.

Over the past 24 hours, the highest recorded AQI in Denver reached 71 at 6 AM, while the lowest point was 34 at 9 PM, reflecting a decrease in pollution as the day progressed. Fine particulate matter concentrations, which are one of the main pollutants, are expected to continue dropping due to unsettled weather and shifting winds moving smoke out of the Denver area.

No air quality advisories or Action Days are currently in effect for the Denver metro and the broader Front Range region. The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment does not anticipate needing any short-term advisories, so the risk from air pollution will remain low for most people today and tomorrow.

Denver residents can expect generally clean air with only minor concerns for sensitive individuals until conditions change. Unusually sensitive groups should stay aware, especially during peak midday hours when pollution tends to be highest, but for the general public the air quality is expected to be good.
