When is air pollution at its worst in Museum of Glass?

Winter temperature inversions can briefly trap wood-smoke in low-lying valleys, but these episodes are usually short-lived.
Are air quality levels in Museum of Glass 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.
