Air quality today
The air quality in Kuopio today is classified as Moderate. The primary pollutant identified is PM2.5 (fine particles). Measurements show a PM2.5 concentration of 12.0996819 µg/m³ and a PM10 level of 13.780571 µg/m³, based on eleven valid observations.
Data are shown via OpenAQ. This page is informational; for health guidance, use official sources such as EPA AirNow or WHO.
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 Kuopio air‑quality record currently includes five measured pollutants – nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), ozone (O₃), particulate matter ≤10 µm (PM10), particulate matter ≤2.5 µm (PM2.5) and sulphur dioxide (SO₂). Data come from 18 individual rows that represent measurements at seven monitoring stations across the city, giving a modest spatial spread but enough to capture conditions in different neighbourhoods.
All of the latest readings were recorded on 2026‑02‑10 at 18:00 UTC, so the dataset is fresh and falls within the three‑day update window used by OpenAQ. The observed concentrations show a fairly wide range for gases and particles alike. NO₂ values span from about 1.6 µg/m³ up to a maximum of 14.9 µg/m³, with a median near 11.4 µg/m³; ozone is consistently higher, ranging between 30.2 µg/m³ and 61.9 µg/m³, centred around a median of 60.2 µg/m³. PM10 measurements vary from roughly 5.8 to 13.8 µg/m³ (median 9.4 µg/m³), while PM2.5 is less variable, staying between 6.4 and 12.1 µg/m³ with a median of 12.1 µg/m³. Sulphur dioxide shows the narrowest spread, recorded from 0.65 to 0.66 µg/m³ (median 0.655 µg/m³).
The coverage is uneven across pollutants: three gases (NO₂, O₃, SO₂) have data from five or more rows each, whereas PM10 and PM2.5 are represented by only three rows each. This means that while the overall picture is recent, some locations may be under‑represented for certain particles. Consequently, conditions can differ noticeably between parts of Kuopio and over short periods, so a single city‑wide figure does not capture all local variations.

Data notes
The dataset for Kuopio includes 11 valid measurements and is updated within 3 days, with the most recent data recorded at 2026‑02‑10T18:00:00+00:00. These figures represent a snapshot of ambient conditions captured by the monitoring network; actual air quality can differ across neighborhoods and change throughout the day, so local variations may not be reflected in this summary.
