When is air pollution at its worst in Huntingdon?
Spring and autumn don't usually cause much concern, sitting comfortably between winter's peak and summer's ozone spikes. You can roughly predict Huntingdon's air quality just by knowing the time of year. In deep winter, a lack of wind lets M9 traffic fumes and woodsmoke settle instead of blowing through. Warmer months swap one problem for another — less smoke and heating pollution, but more ozone on the sunniest days.
Are air quality levels in Huntingdon 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.
