Prishtina air questions

How is the air in Prishtina today?

Today the European index reaches up to 31, so the air is good. Fine particles (PM2.5) go up to 11 µg/m³.

Are these readings from a station in Prishtina?

No. They are a forecast from the European CAMS model on a grid of about 10 km, not measurements. Near busy roads or fires the air can be worse than the model shows. Official measurements are published by the Kosovo Environmental Protection Agency.

The worst day looks like on Tuesday: moderate air (index 42) around 07:00, mostly from fine particles (PM2.5). Pollen in the air: grass (low), mugwort (low).

Tips
  • Most people need not change plans. People with asthma or heart problems may notice it a little.
