Local Environmental Conditions
In Museum of North Texas History, traffic stays fairly light here, leaving wind-blown dust from nearby fields as a bigger factor than vehicle emissions. Nearby trees help trap a portion of this particulate load before it spreads. Short-term spikes can occur with unusual weather or nearby construction and traffic events.
From December to February, average wind speeds run around 16 km/h with temperatures near 7°C, calm and cool enough to let particulate matter and smoke build up near the ground rather than disperse. From July to September, temperatures average around 29°C, warm enough for strong sun and heat to drive ground-level ozone formation.

When is air pollution at its worst in Museum of North Texas History?
From December to February, average wind speeds run around 16 km/h with temperatures near 7°C, calm and cool enough to let particulate matter and smoke build up near the ground rather than disperse. From July to September, temperatures average around 29°C, warm enough for strong sun and heat to drive ground-level ozone formation.
Are air quality levels in Museum of North Texas History 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.
Understanding the Scale
The 0–100 air quality scores represent risk levels, not direct air pollutant concentrations. Higher scores indicate higher risk.
Air Quality
| Good | 0-20 | Low air quality risk. Air quality is expected to be good, with low levels of pollution. |
| Fair | 20-40 | Generally low air quality risk. Air quality is expected to be acceptable, with some pollution present. |
| Moderate | 40-60 | Moderate air quality risk. Air pollution is elevated and air quality may be less favorable. |
| Poor | 60-80 | High air quality risk. Air pollution is high and air quality is expected to be poor. |
| Very Poor | 80-100 | Very high air quality risk. Air pollution is very high and air quality is expected to be very poor. |
