* The Air Quality Health Index (AHQI) is a recognized risk management measurement which describes a local reading of air quality as it relates to human health.

The AQHI is not real time reporting and can have a lag-time of over one hour. If air quality is changing during athletic activity, be aware of the common symptoms of irritated eyes, coughing and difficulty breathing in addition to the reported AQHI index.
