Worst air pollution Wettingen, today and tomorrow

On 30 August 2026, overall air quality in Wettingen is fair. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 33.0/100. Pollution peaks around 1:00 AM (NO2: 33.0/100).

On 31 August 2026, air quality conditions in Wettingen will be similar to today, with AQI forecast at fair at 34.5/100. Pollution peaks around 1:00 AM (NO2: 34.5/100).

On a rare still winter morning, vehicle traffic and cross-border industry at Wettingen linger over the Rhine plain, pushing local readings to their worst point of the year. From spring, conditions steadily pick up over the Rhine plain, and summer stays mostly clear aside from a rare ozone spike, with autumn usually just as settled.

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.
