Eger's air quality reflects its position in a valley of the Bükk foothills, with vehicle traffic and residential wood-burning trapped by the valley contributing the main local sources through the year. Weather patterns typical of Heves shape how quickly pollutants clear, with conditions generally improving whenever winds pick up or rain moves through, while calmer, high-pressure spells tend to let local emissions accumulate for longer than elsewhere in the region.
