Smoke on the water

And fire in the sky

Over 800 wildfires in Canada right now, most of which are out of control.

I saw something saying Duluth mn had the worst air quality in the us, about time the region was recognized for something. Seriously though, stay safe out there or just don't go out if it isn't necessary.

Yep, my sky’s been yellow/orange all day in northern NY. Like the summer of 2023 all over again.

What exactly is this map showing? What do the colors mean? What color starts the gradient and which one finishes it? Am I correct to interpret circle size to correspond with intensity?
Maps need keys, please.

fire.airnow.gov is the site this is from. According to the legend,
Green = good
Yellow = Moderate
Orange = Unhealthy for sensitive groups
Red = Unhealthy
Purple = Very Unhealthy
Maroon = Hazardous

I'm currently in a Maroon zone, and the sky is yellow, and even after running through the building's air filters, my office smells like a campfire.

I'm in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area. So yellow zone. Knowing what the map was saying was more than just idle curiosity.
