Worst air pollution Gondomar, today and tomorrow

On 21 July 2026, overall air quality in Gondomar is medium. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 40.1/100. Pollution peaks around 2:00 PM (O3: 40.1/100).

On 22 July 2026, air quality conditions in Gondomar will be worse than today, with AQI forecast at fair at 39.9/100. Pollution peaks around 3:00 PM (O3: 39.9/100).

Gondomar residents notice reduced air quality mainly when local tree and grass pollen peaks, and during spells of vehicle traffic on the IP4 and the neighbouring suburban and light industrial character of this major; things typically settle down again once the weather pattern shifts.

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.
