Best known as the hometown of astronaut Neil Armstrong, Wapakoneta today sees a mostly rural, low-industry emissions profile. The greenery along Conotton Creek and inside Atwood Lake Park softens the particulate load somewhat for nearby areas. Local weather, especially wind and temperature, accounts for most of the daily swing in readings.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is air quality bad in Wapakoneta right now?
On 30 August 2026, overall air quality in Wapakoneta is moderate. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 40.8/100. Pollution peaks around 10:00 AM (O3: 40.8/100).

On 31 August 2026, air quality conditions in Wapakoneta will be better than today, with AQI forecast at fair at 30.5/100. Pollution peaks around 10:00 AM (O3: 30.5/100).
When is air pollution at its worst in Wapakoneta?
The coldest months tend to bring Wapakoneta's worst particulate levels, as heating demand and traffic settle in under stagnant winter air. Summer heat and sunlight typically push ozone to the top of the seasonal concerns here. The Auglaize River valley can occasionally trap cold-season emissions under calm winter conditions. Spring and fall, with milder temperatures and steadier wind, generally offer the cleanest air of the year.
Are air quality levels in Wapakoneta 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.
