Air quality in Ciampea right now

Right now the modelled US Air Quality Index for Ciampea, West Java, Indonesia is 175, which falls in the "Unhealthy" band (up to 200). Everyone should reduce prolonged or heavy exertion outdoors; sensitive groups should avoid it and keep windows closed.

Model vs measured

We found no measured PM2.5 sensor cell within 25 km of Ciampea, so the numbers on this page are model estimates. Models capture regional pollution well but can miss very local sources such as a busy road or a nearby fire.

Wildfire smoke

PM2.5 is forecast to reach 173 µg/m³ in the next 24 hours while NASA satellites detected 36 fire hotspots within 300 km in the last day (nearest about 80 km away). Smoke is a likely contributor: keep windows closed, run an air purifier or HVAC filter, and check the fire map before heading out.

Advice for sensitive groups

At 175, children, older adults, pregnant people and anyone with asthma, COPD or heart disease should limit time outdoors, especially strenuous activity. A well-fitted N95/FFP2 mask cuts particle exposure; it does not filter ozone.
