Worst air pollution Trim, today and tomorrow

On 9 August 2026, overall air quality in Trim is fair. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 33.9/100. Pollution peaks around 3:00 PM (O3: 33.9/100).

On 10 August 2026, air quality conditions in Trim will be similar to today, with AQI forecast at fair at 21.4/100. Pollution peaks around 3:00 PM (O3: 21.4/100).

Conditions in Trim shift with the calendar, largely because of its riverside setting beneath Trim Castle on the River Boyne. Winter's calmest, coldest nights bring the year's main dip in air quality from solid-fuel heating smoke, while frequent rain and wind keep the rest of the year clean. A change in the weather, which happens often in Ireland, usually clears any smoke within a day or two.

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.
