Note: Due to the lack of historical context data, the comparison is limited.

3. Contextual Interpretation

Unfortunately, due to the unavailability of historical context data, a detailed comparison across various time frames (last 30 days, current season this year, current season across all years, and all data since 2020) cannot be provided. However, the elevated ozone levels observed suggest that they are higher than typical values for this period, potentially influenced by local meteorological conditions or increased photochemical activity.

4. Notable Events

The notable event for July 3, 2025, was the elevated level of ozone. This could be attributed to factors such as high solar radiation, which was also recorded at a maximum of 753.8 W/m², conducive to ozone formation. Additionally, weather patterns such as temperature inversions or stagnant air conditions could have contributed to the accumulation of ozone in the atmosphere.
