Kisumu, November 10, 2026: daily mean PM2.5 22 µg/m³ (7 sensors), level “Moderate” — as in the Atmy Data Hub. Open methodology and data in JSON: Methodology and data sources · JSON

There are not enough fresh measurements for Kisumu right now. From 12:00 to 21:00 local time the city mean PM2.5 rose from 28.0 to 34.4 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 (95%) possibly makes optical sensors read somewhat higher.

Weather now: rain, 20°C, wind 1 m/s, humidity 95%. No major change in the wind is expected in the coming hours.

Written automatically at 00:12 local time (21:12 UTC) from sensor measurements and the weather forecast. Values are approximate; hypotheses are marked.
