What this monitor reports

6.7 µg/m³ is the latest hourly PM10 reading. Current hourly reading.

The monitor belongs to NSW DCCEEW. This site has PM10 rather than PM2.5 at this location. It is included to improve geographic coverage and is kept out of PM2.5 categories, summaries and forecast comparisons.

PM10 and PM2.5 are different particle-size measurements. This reading is not assigned a PM2.5 air-quality category and is not compared with the PM2.5 forecast models.

Why the observations and forecast are separate

This monitor reports PM10, while NASA GEOS-CF, CAMS and SILAM predict total surface PM2.5 at the nearest model grid cells. The forecast may provide useful local context, but it is a different particle-size measurement and is not a continuation of the observed PM10 line.
