The air quality monitor at Pinnacle Peak Club House in north Scottsdale recorded ozone at 80.0 parts per billion at 7 p.m. Tuesday, July 14, according to the Maricopa County Air Quality Department via the EPA AirNow hourly aggregate. That reading crosses AirNow's threshold for the Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups category for ozone.
