Prince George, B.C.- To no surprise, a wildfire smoke advisory has now been issued for:
- Prince George,
- Quesnel,
- Vanderhoof
- Mackenzie
At 10 this morning at the Plaza 400 site, the 24 hour rolling average for PM 2.5 was 24.5 micrograms per cubic meter . That is slightly below the provincial target of 25 micrograms per cubic meter.
In Prince George, the advisory means transit will be free as of midnight tonight, until midnight of the day the advisory is cancelled.

Does anyone know of any other websites which gives this data?
this is a much better website. real data, not AQHI.

Makes me wonder how long it takes them to take a sample or does their sampling require a lengthy period of time to be relevant?
