Understanding Daily and Seasonal Patterns in Bhavnagar

Air quality often worsens during early morning and late evening hours due to temperature inversions. The annual trends provide a broader perspective, showing that Bhavnagar experiences significant seasonal variation. Post-monsoon and winter months typically see higher pollution levels due to lower temperatures and calmer winds, while the monsoon season brings cleaner air thanks to rain washing away pollutants. By staying informed with this live data, you can anticipate these patterns and significantly reduce your health risks.
