Worst air pollution Prijedor, today and tomorrow

On 22 September 2026, overall air quality in Prijedor is fair. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 24.8/100. Pollution peaks around 9:00 AM (PM2.5: 24.8/100).

On 23 September 2026, air quality conditions in Prijedor will be better than today, with AQI forecast at good at 14.5/100. Pollution peaks around 10:00 AM (PM2.5: 14.5/100).

People in Prijedor tend to notice worse air when birch and oak pollen peaks, or because of former iron-ore mining legacy emissions and vehicle traffic; the remainder of the year in Srpska, Republika generally brings clearer, steadier conditions, especially on breezier days that help disperse local emissions across the surrounding countryside and built-up streets alike.

It is forecasts derived by downscaling forecasts provided by EU’s Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) by taking into account local conditions such as traffic patterns. CAMS bases its forecast on satellite measurements of particles and chemical compounds in the atmosphere. Airmine’s services were developed with support from the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) team.

Airmine’s forecast uses CAMS (Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service) as its background atmospheric model. While CAMS includes wildfire emissions, these are derived from satellite observations and are not available in real time. During rapidly evolving wildfire events, there may therefore be a delay before increased emissions are incorporated into the model. As a result, the forecast may temporarily underestimate PM₂.₅ and other pollutants associated with wildfire smoke.

During rapidly evolving wildfire events, CAMS may lag by approximately 1–2 days before increased wildfire emissions are fully represented, which can lead to temporary underestimation of PM₂.₅ concentrations in Airmine’s forecast.
