Clovis' air quality reflects the San Joaquin Valley's enclosed basin position adjacent to Fresno, sharing the notorious pollution trap between the Sierra Nevada and the Coast Range. Persistent valley inversions trap all winter emissions while summer ozone from the valley's combined vehicle and agricultural sources regularly produces some of California's highest readings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is air quality bad in Clovis right now?

On 9 August 2026, overall air quality in Clovis is fair. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 35.3/100. Pollution peaks around 7:00 AM (O3: 35.3/100).

Will air quality be worse tomorrow in Clovis?

On 10 August 2026, air quality conditions in Clovis will be better than today, with AQI forecast at medium at 40.3/100. Pollution peaks around 8:00 AM (O3: 40.3/100).

When is air pollution at its worst in Clovis?

Clovis sees air quality change through the year — winter typically brings the cleanest stretch, once occasional rain clears the basin, whereas summer and early autumn bring the highest ozone levels, and wildfire smoke can spike particulate readings sharply from August through October. The mountains ringing the basin can trap pollution close to the ground for days when winds are calm.

Are air quality levels in Clovis 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.

Why doesn’t the forecast always reflect wildfire impacts?

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.
