Alytus's air quality is generally good by European standards, reflecting the flat Lithuanian southern lowland and the Nemunas river valley, with vehicle traffic on the A4 and surrounding manufacturing and agri-food industry contributing local sources. Baltic westerlies generally provide reasonable ventilation on most days, while winter residential wood and heating oil burning generates seasonal PM2.5 elevation and the flat terrain allows reasonable dispersal, maintaining Alytus among Lithuania's more moderate provincial urban environments throughout the year.
