Tirana air questions

How is the air in Tirana today?

Today the European index reaches up to 29, so the air is good. Fine particles (PM2.5) go up to 7 µg/m³.

Are these readings from a station in Tirana?

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 Albania’s National Environment Agency.

Over the next 4 days the air in Tirana looks good: the European index stays at or below 36, with fine particles (PM2.5) the main contributor. Pollen in the air: mugwort (low).

Tips
  • The air is fine for walks, runs and outdoor sport.

Automatic forecast from Copernicus CAMS (the European model), not a measurement and not medical advice.
