St. Augustine's air quality benefits from its Atlantic coastal position in northeast Florida, with consistent onshore sea breezes providing reliable maritime ventilation along the Florida First Coast. Vehicle emissions from US-1 and I-95 are the primary local sources, while summer ozone from subtropical heat and the Jacksonville-St. Augustine metropolitan traffic is the primary warm-season concern, and the flat coastal terrain and Atlantic exposure prevent significant pollution accumulation.

When is air pollution at its worst in St. Augustine?
St. Augustine sees air quality change through the year, as the wet season's frequent storms generally keep particulate levels lower than in the dry months; by contrast, wildfire and prescribed-burn smoke are most common in the drier months from autumn through spring. Inland areas tend to see more smoke buildup than locations closer to the coast.
Are air quality levels in St. Augustine 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.
