Brooklyn sees rare stretch of excellent air quality

Original: First time in years I remember seeing excellent # airquality in # Brooklyn . Hoping this is not just a fluke related to

Residents in Brooklyn are noticing unusually excellent air quality, something many say they have not experienced in years. A Park Slope observation cited AccuWeather's air quality index, with the hope that the clean air will last rather than proving a temporary effect of a recent storm before conditions return to their usual poor levels.

Why now: Clean air is a rare and welcome change in a city where wildfire smoke and pollution have made poor air quality the norm.
