Minneapolis Air Quality is Straight Up Mid Because of Canada 💀

The Tea

Fam, listen up! Minneapolis is having a whole crisis rn. The air quality? Straight up 🗑️. Like, we're talking second worst in the world according to the stats. AQI is at 159, which is basically a "no go" for breathing fresh air if you have any breathing issues, no cap. And everyone else should be careful too.

But why tho? Blame Canada, fr. Their wildfires are sending all the smoke down here. Chicago and other cities in the Midwest are also getting cooked by this, so it's not just us suffering. Cities like Cedar Rapids, Duluth, and Kansas City are also facing the same struggle. It's a whole Midwest moment, and not in a good way.

The deets are kinda scary. This air can trigger asthma attacks, stress your heart, and just make it hard to breathe in general. So the big brains are telling us to chill inside, keep the windows closed, and maybe even rock a mask if you gotta step out. Air purifiers are your bestie rn. And def don't be out here driving around causing more pollution, that's sus.

And let's be real, this is all connected. Canadian wildfires are legit out of control this year, burning millions of acres. Climate change is making these fires even worse, and now we're all paying the price. It's giving "global problem," and we need to start taking it seriously, period.

And other cities in the US are also feeling the heat, like out in Utah and Colorado, where smoke from their own state fires are ruining the air too. Stay safe out there, y'all!
