Worst air pollution La Manga Club - Murcia, today and tomorrow

On 9 August 2026, overall air quality in La Manga Club is fair. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 30.5/100. Pollution peaks around 2:00 AM (O3: 30.5/100).

On 10 August 2026, air quality conditions in La Manga Club will be similar to today, with AQI forecast at fair at 33.5/100. Pollution peaks around 3:00 PM (O3: 33.5/100).

When is air quality typically worst in La Manga Club? Winter is generally the most challenging season, since low wind speeds and temperature inversions prevent traffic and wood-smoke pollution from dispersing. The transition into spring usually brings cleaner air, as more frequent rain and wind reduce the buildup of local pollution. Summer heat and intense sunlight drive photochemical ozone production, which can push afternoon air quality readings higher despite reduced winter-style pollution sources. As autumn progresses, cooler temperatures and more frequent rain tend to bring air quality back toward its yearly average. Being on the Mediterranean coast helps with dispersal most of the year, though summer tourism and North African dust episodes remain a factor.

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.
