Caution: Data is not validated

For data comparision purposes, the ambient air quality standards are:

Sulfur Dioxide (SO2):

3 hour = 500 parts per billion
24 hour = 140 parts per billion
Annual Mean = 30 parts per billion

Ozone (O3):

1 hour = 125 parts per billion (The revocation of the 1-hour Ozone NAAQS, 125 parts per million, was effective on June 15, 2005)
8 hour = 75 parts per billion

Nitrogen Oxides (NOx): no standard
Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2): Annual Mean = 50 parts per billion
Carbon Monoxide (CO):

1 hour = 35.0 parts per million
8 hour = 9.0 parts per million

Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S):

1 hour = 100 parts per billion
24 hour = 5 parts per billion

PM-10:

24 hour = 150 micrograms per cubic meter

PM-2.5:

24 hour = 35 micrograms per cubic meter
Annual Mean = 15 micrograms per cubic meter

Weather Measurement Definitions

AT = Ambient (Outside) Temperature (degrees Farenheit)
SR = Solar Radiation (watts per square meter) indicates amount of sunshine
SWS = Scalar Arithmetic Averaged Wind Speed (miles per hour)
VWS = Vector Averaged Wind Speed (miles per hour)
VWD = Vector Averaged Wind Direction (compass degrees where 0=north, 90=east, 180=south, 270=west)
