Fredericton Air Quality Map
Check current AQHI observations around Fredericton and New Brunswick while keeping observed health risk separate from the modelled wildfire-smoke forecast.
How to read AQHI around Fredericton
New Brunswick's smaller geographic area makes local incidents easier to scan, but conditions can still change quickly. FireRadar normalizes public labels for readability without replacing provincial fire restrictions or emergency notices. AQHI communicates short-term health risk from multiple pollutants at participating reporting locations; wildfire smoke can contribute, but an AQHI value does not identify a specific fire or pollutant source by itself. A nearby station should not be treated as a uniform reading for every neighbourhood, rural property, or elevation, and a missing marker is not evidence of clean air. FireRadar keeps observed AQHI separate from modelled FireWork smoke so forecast guidance and measured health-risk context are not conflated.
Observation, not a city-wide constant
AQHI values come from participating reporting locations and communicate combined health risk from multiple air pollutants. The nearest observation may not match every neighbourhood around Fredericton, and a missing marker is not evidence of clean air. Wildfire smoke is one possible contributor rather than the definition of AQHI.
A focused starting view, not a clipped dataset
This page starts the national FireRadar layer around Fredericton. The underlying AQHI station layer is not clipped to municipal boundaries, so nearby conditions remain visible as you pan or zoom. FireRadar does not infer a uniform value inside a city boundary.
Health and safety limitation
FireRadar is an informational environmental map. Follow Environment and Climate Change Canada, provincial health agencies, local public-health guidance, and emergency authorities for health or safety decisions. This page does not diagnose exposure, determine whether outdoor activity is safe, or predict individual health effects.
