How to read this page
How to read the AQI
Up to 50 the air is good, up to 100 moderate, above 100 it starts affecting sensitive groups. The Sunrise Manor score reports the worst pollutant of the moment — right now, OZONE, not the average of all of them.
Where the data comes from
The reading comes from the AirNow public archive (U.S. EPA), measured by Clark County Department of Environment and Sustainability, at the Las Vegas, NV monitor, at 10/15/26 20:00 PDT.
Preliminary data, and distance
AirNow publishes measurements without final validation, not valid for regulatory use. And the monitor is not inside Sunrise Manor: treat the number as an order of magnitude, not as a measure of your street.
What to do with a high index
With an index above 100, cut outdoor effort, close windows facing busy roads and follow the official band-by-band advice on the AirNow site.
Understanding air quality in Sunrise Manor
Is the air in Sunrise Manor good right now?
The nearest reading to Sunrise Manor shows AQI 36 (Good (0 to 50)), measured at Las Vegas, NV, 13 km from the centre, with OZONE as the leading pollutant.
In that band the air in Sunrise Manor imposes no restriction on anyone, including people with asthma and anyone exercising outdoors.
What does an AQI of 36 mean for health in Sunrise Manor?
No health risk expected. AQI is not a concentration: it is a 0-to-500 score that converts each pollutant’s measurement through breakpoints set by the EPA and reports the worst one. So an AQI of 36 in Sunrise Manor can come from particulate matter one day and from ozone the next, and feel quite different. The monitor serving Sunrise Manor is 13 km away: in a city of 189,372 the gap between a main road and a park can exceed that distance.
Words on this page
AQI
The United States Air Quality Index, 0 to 500, which converts each pollutant concentration into a single score and reports the worst one. Up to 50 is good, above 100 it starts to affect sensitive groups, above 150 it affects everyone. The score is not linear in concentration: it follows breakpoints set by the EPA.

Ground-level ozone
Ozone formed near the ground when sunlight reacts with exhaust gases and solvents. It is not the ozone layer, which sits kilometres up and protects us: this one irritates the airways and rises on clear, hot, windless days.
Standard definition by U.S. EPA — AQI Technical Assistance Document · Ground-level ozone
PM2.5
Particulate matter under 2.5 micrometres across, fine enough to reach the depths of the lung. It is the pollutant that most often sets the AQI, and it comes from burning: diesel engines, fire, wood stoves, industry.

UV index
An open-ended scale starting at 0 that measures the strength of ultraviolet radiation able to redden skin. From 3 to 5 protection is already advised, 8 to 10 is very high and above 11 is extreme. It depends on how high the Sun is, on the ozone layer, on altitude and on cloud.

Preliminary data
A measurement published as soon as it is collected, before the agency’s final review. It can be corrected or withdrawn: earthquake magnitudes shift in the first hours, air-quality readings are revised weeks later. Use it to plan your day, not for regulatory or legal purposes.
