Worst air pollution Fagernes, today and tomorrow

On 9 August 2026, overall air quality in Fagernes is fair. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 28.1/100. Pollution peaks around 7:00 PM (O3: 28.1/100).

On 10 August 2026, air quality conditions in Fagernes will be similar to today, with AQI forecast at fair at 23.2/100. Pollution peaks around 3:00 AM (NO2: 23.2/100).

Fagernes residents are most likely to notice reduced air quality when heavy commuter traffic coincides with calm winter weather, when calm, cold winter air settles in the valley and holds local emissions in place. Conditions generally normalize once the wind picks up again. For the rest of the year, Fagernes typically sees consistently good air quality.

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.
