In Annemasse, valley motorway traffic and light industry is the primary local source affecting air quality, near the Rhone, though mountain valley winds alternate with calm temperature inversions, which usually keeps pollution from accumulating for long. Winter is typically the worst season, as cold air settles in the valleys and traps traffic and heating emissions for days at a time; summer sees better dispersion but occasional ozone build-up in the lower valleys.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is air quality bad in Annemasse right now?

On 21 July 2026, overall air quality in Annemasse is fair. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 39.7/100. Pollution peaks around 5:00 PM (O3: 39.7/100).

Will air quality be worse tomorrow in Annemasse?

When is air pollution at its worst in Annemasse?

Residents in Annemasse tend to notice the most discomfort when valley motorway traffic and light industry build up alongside the spring peak in birch and oak pollen; mountain valley winds alternate with calm temperature inversions, which typically keeps things from getting worse for long.

Are air quality levels in Annemasse based on measurements or forecasts?

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.

Why doesn’t the forecast always reflect wildfire impacts?

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.
