England, United Kingdom. Measured by low-cost sensors, too few to rank; the model estimate below is the cross-check.
24-hour average, not ranked8US AQI
1–2 sensors, not rankedGood
PM2.5 1.5 µg/m³, 0.1× the WHO 24-hour guideline, from the one low-cost sensor in Spalding. One cheap unit can read well off, so Spalding isn't ranked.
7-day average: 14 US AQI (2.5 µg/m³)
Latest hour: 16 US AQI (2.8 µg/m³), local time
The model's estimate for the same 7 days is about 4 µg/m³: the sensor reads 0.7× that.
Measured, but by one low-cost sensor and no other monitor. It passes the same checks as every sensor we count (stuck, frozen, spikes, far from the model), yet one unit can still be off. A third sensor here would rank Spalding. How sure each figure is
Hour by hour
Hourly values over the last 4 days, local time. Dashed line: WHO 24-hour guideline (15 µg/m³).
Last 30 days
One cell a day, coloured by its band: 5 of 30 days had 18 hours or more of readings. Grey: not enough.

Estimate, not measuredLikely good
Likely between 3 and 6 µg/m³ (17–33 US AQI): the model's 7-day average to 12 Oct 2026, about 0.3× the WHO 24-hour guideline.
30-day average, estimated: ≈ 5 µg/m³
Model estimate from the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS), scaled by 0.88 to match 10 cities within 300 km measured by reference monitors over the last week. Adjusted this way, a single day lands within ×1.5 of what a monitor would read about two times in three: a guide, not a measurement. Not ranked on SmogRank's boards.
