Sammamish's air quality benefits from its Sammamish Plateau position east of Seattle, with vehicle emissions from SR-228 the primary local source in this affluent King County suburb. The surrounding Cascade foothills and the Sammamish Lake provide some topographic variation and local ventilation, while summer wildfire smoke from Washington and Oregon forests is an increasingly severe seasonal concern and the plateau position generally maintains better conditions than the lower Seattle urban valley floor.

When is air pollution at its worst in Sammamish?

Prevailing onshore winds usually keep pollution moving rather than letting it settle.

Are air quality levels in Sammamish 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.
