Latest sensor values
PM categories follow US EPA AQI breakpoints, shown here as an estimate derived from the latest valid measurements (this project does not compute EPA NowCast/24-hour AQI yet).
What the data includes
The Charles City County air‑quality record draws from a single monitoring site at Shirley Plantation, so the dataset contains four pollutant columns – nitrogen dioxide, ozone, fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and sulfur dioxide – each reported in its standard unit. Because only one row of data is present, the station coverage is limited to that location; there are no additional stations or historic rows to broaden spatial insight across the county.
All four measurements were last updated on 2026-02-10 23:00 UTC, which places every value within the “updated within seven days” freshness window. The recorded values show no variation across time because each pollutant has a single reported figure: NO2 sits at 0.003 ppm, O3 at 0.043 ppm, PM2.5 at 8.5 µg/m³ and SO2 at 0.0003 ppm. Because the minimum, median, maximum, 10th percentile and 90th percentile are identical for each pollutant, the dataset does not reveal any spread or range; it simply reflects a snapshot from one moment.
With only one monitoring point, the data cannot capture differences that might exist elsewhere in Charles City County, and the lack of multiple rows means trends over days or weeks are unavailable. Users should keep in mind that conditions can differ by location and time even though the current record is fresh and complete for the four listed pollutants at Shirley Plantation.
