Air quality data is not currently available for this location.

Understanding air quality

What these air quality readings mean

Air quality is affected by tiny particles, gases from traffic and industry, and natural allergens such as pollen. Lower readings are generally better. People with asthma, heart or lung conditions, older adults and young children may notice symptoms sooner when pollution or pollen levels rise.

PM2.5

Very fine particles, smaller than 2.5 micrometres. These can travel deep into the lungs and may worsen asthma, bronchitis, heart disease and general breathing problems. They often come from traffic, wood burning, industry and wider regional pollution.

PM10

Larger airborne particles, including dust, pollen fragments, road wear, construction dust and sea salt. PM10 can irritate the nose, throat and lungs, especially for people with asthma or other respiratory conditions.

Nitrogen dioxide

A gas mainly linked to vehicle exhausts, especially diesel traffic, along with some heating and industrial sources. Higher levels can inflame the airways and make breathing conditions worse.

Carbon monoxide

A colourless gas produced by incomplete combustion. Outdoor levels are usually low, but higher readings can indicate pollution from traffic or burning. Indoors, carbon monoxide is especially dangerous and should be monitored with a working CO alarm.

AQI component scores

The PM2.5 AQI, PM10 AQI and NO₂ AQI show how much each pollutant contributes to the overall air quality index. The highest component usually drives the overall AQI score, so a single pollutant can make air quality worse even if the others are low.

Pollen average

A simple average of available pollen readings. Pollen is not the same as pollution, but it can strongly affect hay fever, asthma and sinus symptoms. Even when pollution is low, pollen can still make the air feel difficult for sensitive people.

How to read the numbers

The pollutant values are shown in micrograms per cubic metre where available. The AQI values are index scores, so they are easier to compare at a glance. In general, lower is better. If the overall AQI is rising, people who are sensitive to air pollution may want to reduce strenuous outdoor activity, especially near busy roads.

Weather guide

Understanding the weather, forecast and air-quality data

The weather dashboard combines current conditions, daily forecasts, hourly detail and UK temperature context. It is intended to help people understand likely conditions in plain English, while still showing the underlying values that drive the forecast cards.

Rain probability is not the same as rainfall amount

A high chance of precipitation means the model expects rain or drizzle to be likely, but the expected millimetres can still be low. A day can therefore show a rain risk even when total rainfall is small, especially where drizzle or short showers are forecast.

Hourly symbols are simplified summaries

Weather symbols compress several variables into one visual cue, including precipitation probability, expected rainfall, cloud cover and temperature. The detailed hourly values are useful when the icon alone looks too cautious or too broad.

Air quality and pollen are contextual indicators

Air-quality values such as PM2.5, PM10 and nitrogen dioxide are best treated as local context. Conditions can vary by street, traffic level, wind direction and time of day, so official alerts and medical advice should take priority where relevant.

Data notes

  • Forecasts and weather observations are drawn from public weather model data.
  • Temperature-map locations are selected points and do not represent every UK town or microclimate.
  • Air-quality values may use modelled estimates where local monitoring stations are not available.

Limitations

  • Forecasts become less certain further into the future.
  • Coastal, island and hill locations can experience local effects that broad model data may not fully capture.
  • Weather information is not a substitute for official severe-weather warnings.
