Kiyose in Saitama reflects the northwestern Tokyo metropolitan residential and hospital corridor, with vehicle traffic on surrounding roads and the National Cancer Research Center, residential, and commercial character contributing local sources. The flat Kanto Plain allows reasonable dispersal, while the broader Tokyo metropolitan regional emissions elevate background and summer photochemical ozone is the primary warm-season concern and Kiyose generally maintains moderate Tokyo northwestern suburban readings throughout most of the year.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is air quality bad in Kiyose right now?
On 21 September 2026, overall air quality in Kiyose is poor. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 69.3/100. Pollution peaks around 1:00 PM (NO2: 69.3/100).
Will air quality be worse tomorrow in Kiyose?
On 22 September 2026, air quality conditions in Kiyose will be worse than today, with AQI forecast at very poor at 92.5/100. Pollution peaks around 5:00 PM (NO2: 92.5/100).
When is air pollution at its worst in Kiyose?
Air quality in Kiyose tends to be worse when vehicle traffic together with heavy industrial and chemical processing build up and hot, still weather settles in. Photochemical reactions in the heat push ozone levels higher. This is far less of an issue outside the warmer months.
Are air quality levels in Kiyose 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.
