Chengdu, November 10, 2026: daily mean PM2.5 32 µg/m³ (13 sensors), level “Moderate” — as in the Atmy Data Hub. Now (06:00 local time): 50.2 µg/m³. Open methodology and data in JSON: Methodology and data sources · JSON
Right now in Chengdu, PM2.5 averages 50.2 µg/m³ — “unhealthy for sensitive groups” on the US EPA scale (approximate, from hourly readings). Mean of 13 sensors from Government stations, readings from 05:00–05:00 local time (21:00–21:00 UTC), summary prepared at 06:00 local time. Median: 44.0 µg/m³; range across sensors: 31.0–71.0 µg/m³.
In Chengdu the air is unhealthy for sensitive groups 🟠 AQI 137. About the same as three hours ago. ⛅ +9 °C · No precipitation · Wind 1 m/s
In Chengdu the air is unhealthy for sensitive groups right now (approximate, US EPA scale). From 17:00 to 06:00 local time the city mean PM2.5 rose from 38.3 to 50.2 µg/m³.
Light wind (1 m/s) in the evening or at night, as the air cools, possibly traps particles near the ground (a temperature inversion). High humidity (91%) possibly makes optical sensors read somewhat higher.
Weather now: partly cloudy, 9°C, wind 1 m/s, humidity 91%. No major change in the wind is expected in the coming hours. By 17:00 the temperature will be about 16°C.
Written automatically at 06:00 local time (22:00 UTC) from sensor measurements and the weather forecast. Values are approximate; hypotheses are marked.

Daily mean PM2.5 on November 10, 2026 (00:00–24:00 UTC = 08:00–08:00 UTC+8): 32 µg/m³ from 13 sensors that passed the quality check — the same value as in the Atmy Data Hub. No. 82 of 100 cities in China and No. 154 of 676 worldwide, from the most polluted.
Right now in Chengdu, PM2.5 averages 50.2 µg/m³ — “unhealthy for sensitive groups” on the US EPA scale (approximate, from hourly readings). Mean of 13 sensors from Government stations, readings from 05:00–05:00 local time (21:00–21:00 UTC), summary prepared at 06:00 local time. Median: 44.0 µg/m³; range across sensors: 31.0–71.0 µg/m³.
The current level is “unhealthy for sensitive groups” (US EPA scale, approximate). Children, older adults and people with heart or lung disease should reduce prolonged or heavy exertion outdoors. This is the standard guidance of the scale, not medical advice.
Highest current reading: 71.0 µg/m³ (大石西路 (中国环境监测总站 (CNEMC) — 国家城市环境空气质量监测网)). Lowest: 31.0 µg/m³ (八角井街185号 (中国环境监测总站 (CNEMC) — 国家城市环境空气质量监测网)). The list shows every sensor, highest first.
From Atmy sensors and connected public networks (citizen, experimental and government monitors), aggregated by Atmy. Values are approximate; see the methodology.
The summary is rebuilt every 15 minutes from the latest reading of each sensor, each no older than one hour.
The daily value is the Data Hub’s: the mean of the city’s sensors that passed the nightly quality check, each with at least 12 valid hours, and only with sensors at four places 500 m apart; days are UTC.
“Now” uses the same sensors and rule: the mean of their latest readings, each at most 60 minutes old, shown only with sensors at four places 500 m apart reporting.
