Air advisory
Metro Vancouver has ended the fine particulate matter Air Quality Advisory for Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley Regional District that has been in effect since Sept. 8.

Metro Vancouver has ended the fine particulate matter Air Quality Advisory that has been in effect since Sept. 8.

Air quality has improved due to cleaner marine air flowing into the region.

Although fine particulate matter concentrations have decreased significantly, pockets of local smoke might still be visible in parts of the region as smoke concentrations can vary as winds and temperatures change.

Metro Vancouver works in cooperation with Environment and Climate Change Canada, Fraser Valley Regional District and B.C. Ministry of Environment and Climate Change Strategy to look after air quality.
