When is air pollution at its worst in The Rooms?

The Rooms's air quality rises and falls with the seasons, shaped by its hilltop setting overlooking downtown St. John's. Persistent fog and near-constant Atlantic winds keep the air unusually clean through most of the year, with only rare still spells allowing local emissions to linger. The near-constant wind off the ocean rarely lets anything accumulate for long.

Are air quality levels in The Rooms 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.
