Morristown's air quality reflects the East Tennessee valley's position between the Cumberland Plateau and the Appalachian ridgelines, with vehicle emissions from I-81 and US-11E and the surrounding manufacturing corridor contributing local sources. The enclosed Appalachian valley topography concentrates emissions under winter inversions, while summer ozone from the naturally high biogenic Appalachian VOC emissions is the primary warm-season concern throughout the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Morristown?

Morristown follows a fairly predictable seasonal air quality pattern, as once summer humidity fades, winter typically offers the most consistently clean air; by contrast, long, hot, humid summers bring the year's worst ozone readings. Occasional agricultural or prescribed-burning smoke can add short-lived particulate spikes outside the main summer ozone season.

Are air quality levels in Morristown 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.
