This pattern of the iPhone weather app showing far worse air quality than the official observation stations continues.
I did some research. The air quality data in the iPhone weather app is supplied by a company called “Breezometer”

Never heard of them so I can speak to the accuracy of this data. It is perplexing and at the same time intriguing. I would bet the air quality shown at the street level (worse from traffic) is the real deal. I’m not sure how they are collecting this data (satellite measurements maybe) but it certainly makes me wonder how accurate it is.
January 2023
I use a website call AQI. I think they have an app. Its based on ground level sensors.

I used the website when I was working in China. The levels got to extremes at time, (450Pm 2.5) at which time our company wouldn't let us leave the office or they would bring us back to office.

Mesocale models like the NAM 12km are getting in range of the initial blast of arctic air, already much colder and faster than the op models with precipitation breaking out

Maybe for our NW counties, but unlikely in the houston area, the setup is not supportive for snow, this will be either rain for some and Ice for others
What kind of temps for us then?
