Air quality in rainy season (May-October)?

I've been here a dozen times now but never during these months. It's always been sometime between end of October and April.

I do enjoy a lot of Bangkok but the air quality is what drives me away after a few weeks.

I am extremely sensitive and pretty much can't go outside above ~100 aqi.

I've looked at historical air quality charts during these months and the air actually looks really great (green).

Basically I'm wondering if that is indeed the case from your experience and if there are any other air quality issues during this time not showing up in the readings.

I'm asking because I'm considering staying for longer period during these months. The rain here isn't an issue for me because it passes quickly but air quality is the number one most importantly factor by far.

yeah Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but if you're up for a detour, try Som Tum Nua near Siam Square. their som tam pu pla ra is insane if you like the fermented fish sauce kick. way more pungent than the On Nut spot, just less grilled chicken options
