Air quality today
The air quality in Craiova is currently classified as Good. The main pollutant identified is PM2.5 (fine particles). Measurements show a PM2.5 reference value of 8.9122 and a PM10 reference value of 22.0, based on 17 valid observations collected via OpenAQ.
These figures indicate that the particulate concentrations are within the range associated with the Good category. This page is informational; for health guidance, use official sources such as EPA AirNow or WHO.

What the data includes
The dataset for Craiova contains recent measurements of six key pollutants – carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂, reported as “no2”), ozone (O₃, reported as “o3”), particulate matter 10 µm and smaller (PM10), fine particulate matter 2.5 µm and smaller (PM2.5, reported as “pm25”), and sulfur dioxide (SO₂). These values come from 29 individual data rows collected at seven monitoring stations across the city. Freshness is generally good: 24 of the rows were updated within the last seven days, while five rows are older than thirty days; no entries are marked as unknown.
Across the pollutants the observed ranges vary considerably. CO shows the highest values, with a minimum of 310.49 µg/m³, a median around 361 µg/m³ and a peak of 484.74 µg/m³ recorded at station DJ‑2 on 2026-02-10 19:00 UTC. NO₂ spans from a low of ‑1.0 µg/m³ (a placeholder value) up to 38.84 µg/m³, with a median of 26.44 µg/m³ and the most recent reading of 29.87 µg/m³ at DJ‑2 on the same timestamp. O₃ values are clustered near the upper end of their range, with both the median and maximum equal to 61.17 µg/m³, recorded at DJ‑5. PM10 measurements range from 9.90 µg/m³ to 22.00 µg/m³, median 14.77 µg/m³, while PM2.5 is represented by a single recent value of 8.91 µg/m³ at DJ‑2. SO₂ data include several placeholder negatives; the only positive reading is 7.23 µg/m³ with a maximum of 17.29 µg/m³, also from DJ‑5.
The coverage across pollutants is uneven: CO, NO₂ and PM10 each have six recent rows, O₃ and SO₂ have five, while PM2.5 appears in only one row. Consequently, the picture of air quality in Craiova is most detailed for the more frequently sampled gases and particulates, but less complete for finer particles and sulfur dioxide. Because some rows are older than a month and certain pollutants are sparsely represented, conditions can differ across neighborhoods and times beyond what this snapshot captures.

Data notes
The data shown for Craiova is based on 17 valid measurements and was refreshed within the past three days, with the most recent update recorded at 2026‑02‑10T19:00:00+00:00. This snapshot reflects conditions measured at specific monitoring points and times; air quality can differ across neighborhoods and throughout the day, so values may not represent every location or moment in the city.
