Ulladulla generally enjoys clean coastal air thanks to onshore breezes off the Tasman Sea, though this South Coast fishing town was severely affected by bushfire smoke during the 2019–20 Currowan fire, which burned extensively through surrounding forests and remains the defining recent air quality event for the district. Being fringed by extensive Budawang and Murramarang forest country, Ulladulla remains vulnerable to bushfire smoke whenever fire danger is elevated inland, though prevailing onshore breezes keep everyday air quality clean for most of the year. Hazard reduction burns conducted through cooler months can also bring brief, localised smoke haze to the town.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is air quality bad in Ulladulla right now?

On 4 August 2026, overall air quality in Ulladulla is good. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 15.6/100. Pollution peaks around 2:00 PM (O3: 15.6/100).

Will air quality be worse tomorrow in Ulladulla?

On 5 August 2026, air quality conditions in Ulladulla will be similar to today, with AQI forecast at good at 16.5/100. Pollution peaks around 2:00 PM (O3: 16.5/100).

When is air pollution at its worst in Ulladulla?

Outside of major bushfire events like the 2019–20 Currowan fire, air quality here is typically very good year-round due to reliable onshore sea breezes; the clearest ongoing risk is bushfire smoke from the surrounding forested escarpment during dry, high-fire-danger periods.

Are air quality levels in Ulladulla 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.
