Worst air pollution North Fort Tours - Manly, today and tomorrow

On 20 September 2026, overall air quality in North Fort Tours is moderate. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 41.9/100. Pollution peaks around 3:00 PM (O3: 41.9/100).

On 21 September 2026, air quality conditions in North Fort Tours will be better than today, with AQI forecast at fair at 34.5/100. Pollution peaks around 8:00 PM (PM2.5: 34.5/100).

Winter is usually when particulate matter climbs highest locally, when winter inversions trap local heating smoke in place for days at a time. Warmer months bring a different problem: smoke haze from nearby bushfires, since bushfire smoke haze on affected days can outweigh the ozone increase heat alone would produce. Spring and autumn tend to bring the cleanest air of the year, aided by milder temperatures and more consistent wind.

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.

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.
