The air quality picture in Filey reflects a typical North Yorkshire town, with traffic emissions and local commercial activity as key contributors. Commuter traffic feeding onto the M25 adds a further, consistent contribution to local readings. Onshore breezes do most of the work keeping things in check, more so than any local policy or infrastructure change.

When is air pollution at its worst in Filey?
Spring and autumn don't usually cause much concern, sitting comfortably between winter's peak and summer's ozone spikes. You can roughly predict Filey's air quality just by knowing the time of year. Winter mornings can be the trickiest, with cold, still conditions trapping M25 traffic fumes and smoke from home fires close to the ground. Warmer months swap one problem for another — less smoke and heating pollution, but more ozone on the sunniest days.
Are air quality levels in Filey 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.
