Northern United States and Canada, June 2025

For 5 days, from 10 to 14 June 2025, 134 cities in the United States and Canada had PM2.5 at least twice their usual for the time of year. The worst reading was Wilmington, Delaware, United States: 70.9 µg/m³ on 14 June, about 9.8× its usual 7.2. Ended 14 June.

Few fires were detected near these cities on those days. Spreads like this usually come from still weather trapping smoke from heating, traffic and industry, or from dust.

Usual: the city's median for the time of year of that day (its days within 21 days of the date, every year, leaving out the week around it). Above usual: its highest day against that, with a usual under 5 µg/m³ taken as 5.

An episode is a run of days when many cities close to each other (four or more within 350 km on a day, 8 or more in all) each had a daily PM2.5 mean of at least 25 µg/m³ and at least 2 times their usual for that time of year. Found in our own measurements, not picked by hand. How we find episodes. Values are each city's daily mean of its own monitors; causes are the usual kinds for a pattern like this, not a confirmed source. Fire detections from NASA FIRMS; smoke maps from NOAA HMS.
