Worst air pollution Toomulla, today and tomorrow

On 25 August 2026, overall air quality in Toomulla is good. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 19.1/100. Pollution peaks around 2:00 PM (O3: 19.1/100).

On 26 August 2026, air quality conditions in Toomulla will be similar to today, with AQI forecast at good at 19.8/100. Pollution peaks around 5:00 PM (O3: 19.8/100).

The colder months typically bring the heaviest particulate levels of the year, when winter inversions trap local heating smoke in place for days at a time. Summer shifts the concern toward bushfire smoke here too, since bushfire smoke haze on affected days can outweigh the ozone increase heat alone would produce. The shoulder seasons, spring and autumn, usually offer the year's best air quality thanks to milder, breezier conditions.

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.
