Worst air pollution Francavilla Fontana, today and tomorrow

On 9 August 2026, overall air quality in Francavilla Fontana is medium. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 43.9/100. Pollution peaks around 1:00 PM (O3: 43.9/100).

On 10 August 2026, air quality conditions in Francavilla Fontana will be similar to today, with AQI forecast at medium at 46.5/100. Pollution peaks around 3:00 PM (O3: 46.5/100).

In Francavilla Fontana, reduced air quality is most noticeable when olive and cypress pollen is at its peak, and on days affected by agricultural activity and vehicle traffic across the plain; conditions tend to settle down again once weather patterns shift and the local Puglia terrain ventilates more freely, usually bringing several weeks of steadier readings.

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.
