Frequently Asked Questions
Is air quality bad in Downtown West Point right now?
On 9 August 2026, overall air quality in Downtown West Point is fair. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 23.9/100. Pollution peaks around 6:00 AM (O3: 23.9/100).

When is air pollution at its worst in Downtown West Point?
At Downtown West Point, air quality tends to follow West Point's broader seasonal rhythm. In short, the cleanest stretch usually comes in winter, once the long, hot ozone season has passed, whereas extended summer heat and humidity, along with local industry, keep ozone elevated for months. Hurricane season can occasionally disrupt normal pollution patterns, for better or worse depending on the storm.
Are air quality levels in Downtown West Point 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.
