Right now in Zagreb, PM2.5 averages 5.2 µg/m³ — “good” on the US EPA scale (approximate, from hourly readings). Mean of 4 sensors on the Atmy network, readings from 19:54–19:57 local time (17:54–17:57 UTC), summary prepared at 20:00 local time. Median: 6.8 µg/m³; range across sensors: 0.2–7.2 µg/m³.

In Zagreb the air is good right now (approximate, US EPA scale). From 07:00 to 20:00 local time the city mean PM2.5 rose from 0.8 to 5.2 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 (86%) possibly makes optical sensors read somewhat higher.

Weather now: cloudy, 13°C, wind 1 m/s, humidity 86%. No major change in the wind is expected in the coming hours. By 07:00 the temperature will be about 6°C.
