Bangkok, October 21, 2026: daily mean PM2.5 16 µg/m³ (27 sensors), level “Moderate” — as in the Atmy Data Hub. Now (01:00 local time): 31.2 µg/m³. Open methodology and data in JSON: Methodology and data sources · JSON

Right now in Bangkok, PM2.5 averages 31.2 µg/m³ — “moderate” on the US EPA scale (approximate, from hourly readings). Mean of 26 sensors on the Atmy network, readings from 00:46–00:56 local time (17:46–17:56 UTC), summary prepared at 01:00 local time. Median: 32.3 µg/m³; range across sensors: 1.8–45.8 µg/m³.

In Bangkok the air is moderate right now (approximate, US EPA scale). From 12:00 to 01:00 local time the city mean PM2.5 rose from 19.8 to 31.2 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 (89%) possibly makes optical sensors read somewhat higher.

Weather now: clear, 28°C, wind 1 m/s, humidity 89%. No major change in the wind is expected in the coming hours. By 12:00 the temperature will be about 32°C.

Data

Where do these data come from?

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.
