Palm Coast's air quality benefits from its direct Atlantic coastal position in Flagler County, with consistent sea breezes providing reliable maritime ventilation along Florida's northeast coast. Vehicle emissions from I-95 and US-1 are the primary local sources, while summer ozone from subtropical heat is the primary warm-season concern and the flat coastal terrain and Atlantic exposure prevent significant topographic pollution accumulation throughout the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Palm Coast?

Palm Coast experiences a distinct seasonal swing in air quality. In short, the wet season's frequent storms generally keep particulate levels lower than in the dry months, whereas without the wet season's regular storms, dry-season smoke can linger for days at a time. Sea breezes help disperse pollution on most days, though smoke from inland fires can still drift into populated areas.

Are air quality levels in Palm Coast 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.
