Worst air pollution Centerville, today and tomorrow

On 9 August 2026, overall air quality in Centerville is fair. O3 is the main pollutant at 38.1/100. Pollution peaks around 11:00 PM (NO2: 57.8/100).

On 10 August 2026, air quality conditions in Centerville will be similar to today, with O3 forecast at fair at 36.1/100. Pollution peaks around 12:00 AM (NO2: 59.4/100).

Centerville's air quality follows a clear seasonal pattern, as the cleanest conditions usually come in winter, once the growing season dust and pollen have passed; by contrast, strong spring winds can raise dust suddenly, and summer heat adds its own ozone risk on top. Wide-open terrain generally helps disperse pollution quickly once the wind picks up.

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.
