West Allis' air quality reflects the Greater Milwaukee metropolitan area's western suburban industrial corridor, with vehicle emissions from I-894 and the Milwaukee County Stadium area's event traffic and surrounding manufacturing legacy generating local sources. Lake Michigan's influence provides some regional maritime air, while the broader Milwaukee industrial and urban regional background is the primary ongoing air quality concern, and the former Allis-Chalmers manufacturing legacy maintains elevated baseline industrial PM2.5 throughout the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in West Allis?

In short, between summer ozone and occasional winter inversions, spring and fall are the year's cleanest stretch, whereas summer heat waves are the main driver of poor air quality, as ozone builds under stagnant, humid conditions. Lake-effect winds can help clear the air on many days near the Great Lakes shoreline.

Are air quality levels in West Allis 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.
