In Dunwich, with fewer vehicles on the road, nearby cropland dust and periodic burning outweigh traffic as a pollution source. Green space close by offers a partial natural check on particulate buildup. Actual daily readings vary with weather, time of day, and short-term local activity. The surrounding area tends to follow a similar pattern, with only minor local variation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is air quality bad in Dunwich right now?
On 25 August 2026, overall air quality in Dunwich is very poor. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 97.6/100. Pollution peaks around 12:00 PM (NO2: 97.6/100).
Will air quality be worse tomorrow in Dunwich?
On 26 August 2026, air quality conditions in Dunwich will be similar to today, with AQI forecast at very poor at 100/100. Pollution peaks around 6:00 PM (NO2: 100/100).
When is air pollution at its worst in Dunwich?
Cold-season conditions typically drive the sharpest particulate increases around here, when home heating emissions build up under temperature inversions common on calm winter days. Summer heat and dry surrounding vegetation push bushfire smoke to the forefront of local air quality concerns, with summer's heat and dry vegetation together producing both elevated ozone and, at times, bushfire smoke haze.
Are air quality levels in Dunwich 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.
