Worst air pollution Oak Cliff - Dallas, today and tomorrow

On 18 July 2026, overall air quality in Oak Cliff is fair. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 30.0/100. Pollution peaks around 8:00 AM (PM10: 30.0/100).

On 19 July 2026, air quality conditions in Oak Cliff will be similar to today, with AQI forecast at fair at 28.1/100. Pollution peaks around 8:00 AM (O3: 28.1/100).

Oak Cliff follows Dallas's typical seasonal air quality pattern — spring and autumn generally bring more moderate, cleaner conditions between the extremes of summer and winter cedar season, whereas the hottest summer months consistently bring the highest ozone risk statewide. Dust from West Texas can occasionally drift across the state and add to particulate levels.

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.
