Frequently Asked Questions
Is air quality bad in East Hills right now?
On 30 August 2026, overall air quality in East Hills is poor. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 61.4/100. Pollution peaks around 11:00 PM (NO2: 61.4/100).

When is air pollution at its worst in East Hills?
Winter conditions in East Hills average 14.4°C in June, when calm, cool air can allow local emissions to build up. By December, temperatures near 21.6°C raise the risk of ground-level ozone on sunny days. March brings around 186mm of rainfall, typically helping clear the air during the shoulder season.
Are air quality levels in East Hills based on measurements or forecasts?
It is forecasts derived by downscaling forecasts provided by EU’s Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) by taking into account local conditions such as traffic patterns. CAMS bases its forecast on satellite measurements of particles and chemical compounds in the atmosphere. Airmine’s services were developed with support from the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) team.
Why doesn’t the forecast always reflect wildfire impacts?
Airmine’s forecast uses CAMS (Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service) as its background atmospheric model. While CAMS includes wildfire emissions, these are derived from satellite observations and are not available in real time. During rapidly evolving wildfire events, there may therefore be a delay before increased emissions are incorporated into the model. As a result, the forecast may temporarily underestimate PM₂.₅ and other pollutants associated with wildfire smoke.
During rapidly evolving wildfire events, CAMS may lag by approximately 1–2 days before increased wildfire emissions are fully represented, which can lead to temporary underestimation of PM₂.₅ concentrations in Airmine’s forecast.
