Szczecin's air quality reflects its position as Poland's main northwest Baltic port, with shipping emissions from the Oder estuary and industrial activity from the Szczecin shipyard and chemical plant complex contributing elevated PM2.5 and NOₓ alongside traffic on the surrounding expressway network. Baltic westerlies generally provide good maritime ventilation along the coast, while the flat Pomeranian plain allows reasonable dispersal on most days.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is air quality bad in Szczecin right now?
On 9 August 2026, overall air quality in Szczecin is fair. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 38.5/100. Pollution peaks around 6:00 PM (O3: 38.5/100).

When is air pollution at its worst in Szczecin?
Szczecin residents notice reduced air quality mainly when birch and linden pollen peaks, and during spells of shipping emissions from the Oder estuary and industrial activity from the Szczecin shipyard and chemical plant; conditions generally improve once the season shifts and rainfall or stronger winds return.
Are air quality levels in Szczecin 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.
