Most of spring and autumn stays fairly steady, right in the middle of those two extremes.

Are air quality levels in Kingston upon Hull 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.
