Air quality today

The air quality in Velingrad today is classified as Moderate. The primary pollutant identified is PM2.5 (fine particles). Measurements show a PM2.5 concentration of 27.91 µg/m³ and a PM10 level of 29.28 µg/m³, based on seven valid observations.

Data is shown via OpenAQ. This page is informational; for health guidance, use official sources such as EPA AirNow or WHO.

What the data includes

The Velingrad air‑quality feed contains measurements for seven variables – humidity, temperature, pressure and the four particulate size fractions PM1, PM2.5, PM4 and PM10. All data come from a single monitoring site (NPGGS Hristo Botev) that contributed eleven rows of observations overall, but only seven of those rows have been updated within the last three days; the remaining four are older than three days. The most recent timestamps for each pollutant cluster around 2026‑02‑10 22:28 UTC (temperature, pressure, PM1, PM2.5, PM4 and PM10) or 2026‑02‑10 22:29 UTC for humidity, indicating that the latest readings are just a few hours old.

Across the recent data the particulate matter concentrations show a modest spread. PM1 values range from 25.06 to 55.88 µg/m³ with a median of 40.47 µg/m³; PM10 spans 29.28‑60.52 µg/m³ (median 44.90 µg/m³); PM2.5 varies between 27.91 and 59.82 µg/m³ (median 43.87 µg/m³); and PM4 lies from 29.05 to 60.40 µg/m³ (median 44.73 µg/m³). The 10th‑percentile figures sit just above the minima for each size fraction, while the 90th‑percentiles approach the upper ends, suggesting most recent readings cluster toward the middle of their observed ranges.

The ancillary weather variables are single‑value snapshots: humidity is recorded at 69.035 % and pressure at 919.46 hPa, both unchanged across the dataset, while temperature sits at a chilly 1.99 °C. Because only one station supplies data for Velingrad, spatial coverage is limited; conditions can differ in other parts of the city or surrounding area, especially when older rows dominate the record. Nonetheless, the available recent measurements give a clear picture of current particulate levels and basic meteorological context for this location.

Data notes

The data shown for Velingrad reflects seven valid measurements and was updated within three days, with the latest reading recorded on 2026‑02‑10 at 22:29 UTC. This snapshot provides a recent overview of air quality across the city, but conditions can differ by specific neighbourhoods and change throughout the day, so local variations may not be captured in these aggregate figures.
