Crowdsourcing: Today's air quality in SoCal was poor (mainly ozone), despite recent reductions in tailpipe emissions due to #COVID19 measures. I know that personal care/cleaning products are (surprisingly!) substantial contributor to O3 VOC precursors in urban areas. (1/3) #CAwx
Does anyone with deeper air pollution knowledge than me have a sense of whether widespread #COVID19-related increase in use of disinfectants/cleaning products could potentially have meaningful effect on city-scale air quality? #CAwx (2/3)
Just trying to get a sense of order of relevant magnitude. I realize that ambient weather conditions were otherwise quite favorable for ground-level ozone pollution today, but this came up in Weather West comments section and I thought it was an interesting question. (3/3) #CAwx
