Some of this load is absorbed by nearby vegetation, acting as a modest natural filter. Wind patterns on any given day can shift this picture meaningfully in either direction.

On 20 September 2026, overall air quality in Elyria Swansea is moderate. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 56.7/100. Pollution peaks around 8:00 AM (O3: 56.7/100).

When is air pollution at its worst in Elyria Swansea?

From September to November, average wind speeds run around 12 km/h with temperatures near 12°C, calm and cool enough to let particulate matter and smoke build up near the ground rather than disperse. Temperatures climb to around 23°C on average from June to August, warm enough for intense sun and heat to fuel ground-level ozone formation.

Are air quality levels in Elyria Swansea 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.
