San Sebastián de los Reyes' air quality reflects the northern Madrid metropolitan technology corridor, with vehicle traffic on the A-1 motorway and surrounding retail and automotive dealership operations contributing elevated NOₓ. The Madrid basin's winter temperature inversion affects the northern corridor, while the flat Castilian Meseta north of Madrid provides some dispersal on northerly wind days throughout the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in San Sebastián de los Reyes?
What time of year has the cleanest air in San Sebastián de los Reyes? Air quality is typically at its weakest in December and January, when cold, calm high-pressure spells trap traffic exhaust and wood-smoke close to the ground instead of letting it disperse. Spring usually brings an improvement as more frequent rain and stronger winds help clear the air and wash out pollutants that built up over winter. Hot, stagnant summer air favours ozone formation, and dry vegetation nearby occasionally adds wildfire smoke to the mix during peak heat. The transition into autumn generally brings cleaner conditions, as more frequent rainfall and lower temperatures curb ozone formation. The interior's dry continental climate means winter inversions and summer heat both tend to hit harder than along the coast.
Are air quality levels in San Sebastián de los Reyes 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.
