Guildford sits in the historic Swan Valley wine region east of Perth, an inland position that receives markedly weaker afternoon sea-breeze ventilation than the western river suburbs, allowing heat and haze to build more readily on calm days. Dust from surrounding vineyards and agricultural land is a notable dry-season factor. Bushfire smoke is a periodic summer risk from the nearby Darling Range. There is no heavy industry. Overall, background air quality here reflects the more inland Swan Valley climate pattern.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is air quality bad in Guildford right now?

On 17 September 2026, overall air quality in Guildford is fair. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 25.5/100. Pollution peaks around 10:00 PM (PM2.5: 25.5/100).

Will air quality be worse tomorrow in Guildford?

On 18 September 2026, air quality conditions in Guildford will be similar to today, with AQI forecast at fair at 23.9/100. Pollution peaks around 3:00 PM (PM2.5: 23.9/100).

When is air pollution at its worst in Guildford?

Guildford, being further inland along the Swan Valley, can be more exposed to lingering bushfire smoke during summer, December to March, than suburbs closer to the coast, since it sits further from the moderating sea breeze. Outside this period, expect generally clean air.

Are air quality levels in Guildford 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.
