Glasgow, November 10, 2026: daily mean PM2.5 5 µg/m³ (4 sensors), level “Low” — as in the Atmy Data Hub. Open methodology and data in JSON: Methodology and data sources · JSON

In Glasgow the air is good right now (approximate, US EPA scale). From 09:00 to 20:00 local time the city mean PM2.5 rose from 3.3 to 5.3 µg/m³. The highest hour was 13:00 with 7.5 µg/m³.

Light wind (2 m/s) in the evening or at night, as the air cools, possibly traps particles near the ground (a temperature inversion). Cold weather (3°C) possibly means more heating, a common source of particles.

Weather now: clear, 3°C, wind 2 m/s, humidity 92%. No major change in the wind is expected in the coming hours.

Written automatically at 21:09 local time (21:09 UTC) from sensor measurements and the weather forecast. Values are approximate; hypotheses are marked.
