Worst air pollution Granadilla de Abona, today and tomorrow

On 19 July 2026, overall air quality in Granadilla de Abona is fair. PM2.5 is the main pollutant at 34.4/100. Pollution peaks around 1:00 PM (PM10: 45.0/100).

On 20 July 2026, air quality conditions in Granadilla de Abona will be similar to today, with PM2.5 forecast at fair at 39.4/100. Pollution peaks around 3:00 AM (PM10: 45.4/100).

What time of year has the cleanest air in Granadilla de Abona? Winter tends to bring the year's weakest readings, as stagnant, cold air lets heating smoke and vehicle emissions build up rather than clear away. Spring is typically when conditions begin improving, as increasing wind speeds help disperse traffic emissions before they can accumulate. Summer's combination of intense sun and high temperatures makes ozone the main concern, occasionally compounded by wildfire smoke during dry, windy spells. Autumn generally marks the shift back toward calmer, cleaner conditions as temperatures drop and rainfall becomes more regular. The Canaries' subtropical position moderates the usual seasonal pattern, but dust blown in from the nearby Sahara can cause sudden spikes at any time of year.

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.
