Air quality today
The air quality in Várpalota is currently classified as Moderate. The primary pollutant identified is PM2.5, fine particulate matter measured at a reference value of 24.0 µg/m³, while the accompanying PM10 level stands at 28.0 µg/m³ based on three valid observations.
Data are shown via OpenAQ and reflect the latest available measurements for the city. 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 Várpalota air‑quality dataset contains six rows of observations from a single monitoring station and covers all six common pollutants: carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), ozone (O₃), particulate matter ≤10 µm (PM10), particulate matter ≤2.5 µm (PM2.5) and sulfur dioxide (SO₂). For CO, NO₂, PM10 and PM2.5 the most recent reading was recorded on 2026‑02‑10 at 20:00 UTC, so these four pollutants are refreshed within the last three days. In contrast, the latest O₃ and SO₂ values date back to 2024‑09‑20 at 21:00 UTC, indicating that data for those two gases are older than a year.
All six measurements show a single reported value, which also serves as the minimum, median and maximum for each pollutant. CO is recorded at 576.0 µg/m³, NO₂ at 35.1 µg/m³, O₃ at 62.4 µg/m³, PM10 at 28.0 µg/m³, PM2.5 at 24.0 µg/m³ and SO₂ at 2.6 µg/m³. Because each pollutant has only one data point, there is no observed spread; the 10th‑percentile and 90th‑percentile values are identical to the median for every substance.
The dataset therefore provides a complete but very limited snapshot of air quality in Várpalota: coverage across pollutants is comprehensive, yet the number of monitoring locations is minimal and the temporal depth varies markedly. Recent information is available for four gases, while ozone and sulfur dioxide rely on older measurements, so current conditions for those two compounds cannot be assessed from this source alone.

Data notes
The data shown for Várpalota is based on three valid measurements and was updated within 3 days, with the latest refresh recorded at 2026‑02‑10T20:00:00+00:00. This snapshot reflects conditions at specific monitoring points and times; air quality can differ across neighborhoods and throughout the day, so values may not represent every location or moment in the city.
