Gdynia's air quality reflects its position as Poland's main deep-water container port on Gdańsk Bay, with shipping emissions from the busy Port of Gdynia terminal operations and the naval base contributing elevated SO₂ and NOₓ alongside vehicle traffic on the surrounding expressway network. Baltic sea breezes generally provide good coastal ventilation on most days, while the flat Pomeranian coastal plain allows reasonable dispersal and inland areas are more susceptible to coal burning emissions during winter.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is air quality bad in Gdynia right now?

On 9 August 2026, overall air quality in Gdynia is fair. O3 is the main pollutant at 27.5/100. Pollution peaks around 3:00 AM (NO2: 41.7/100).

Will air quality be worse tomorrow in Gdynia?

When is air pollution at its worst in Gdynia?

People in Gdynia tend to notice reduced air quality when local tree and grass pollen peaks, or because of shipping emissions from the busy Port of Gdynia terminal operations and the naval base; conditions usually ease once the wet season or windier weather returns.

Are air quality levels in Gdynia 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.
