What time of year has the cleanest air in Getxo? December through February is often the toughest stretch, driven by temperature inversions that keep exhaust and heating smoke from dispersing on still days. Spring often marks a turning point, with increasing storminess and rainfall helping to clear accumulated exhaust and smoke from the air. The long, hot days of summer favour ozone build-up, which can spike on the stillest, sunniest afternoons. Early autumn can still bring warm, stagnant spells before the season's returning rain and wind begin clearing the air. This region's wetter, windier Atlantic climate generally keeps annual air quality more consistent than in Spain's drier interior and south.

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.
