0502 PM Event
Based on AIRNOW
PM Event
Midwest Region
•
Compared to past PM25 events, since 2003 the 0502 event was
–
–
–
Lower peak concentration (40 ug/m3 avg) than the yearly July 4 spikes (>55 ug/m3 avg)
Much longer (10 days) than the July 4 spikes (2-3 hours)
The event time integral was ~2x higher than the largest summer events
Regional Average PM25 Concentration Pattern
Based on AIRNOW
0502 PM Event
• Time pattern of the 0502 Event
– The overall event lasted about 10 days, Jan 28-February 7
– The Upper Midwest peaked first (Jan 31-Feb 2); Industrial MW later (Feb 3 – 6)
– The Industrial MW region show more diurnal variation (lowest in the mid-afternoon)
