Rush-hour queues near the M6 are usually when readings climb the most. Like much of Warwickshire, Warwick's air quality is shaped less by industry these days and more by everyday road traffic. Moist Atlantic fronts offer a degree of natural ventilation, keeping pollution broadly in line with comparable UK towns.

When is air pollution at its worst in Warwick?
Warwick doesn't have one fixed air quality level — it swings between two extremes each year. Summer sunshine can drive up ozone locally, though overall air generally moves and clears more freely than in winter. Winter tends to be worst, with wood burning, home heating, and still, cold air trapping traffic fumes from the M6 closer to ground level. Spring and autumn tend to be the calmer, more moderate stretches by comparison.
Are air quality levels in Warwick 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.
