Air quality today
The air quality in Drammen today falls into the USG category. The main pollutant identified is PM2.5, with a measured concentration of 41.8969 µg/m³. A secondary measurement shows PM10 at 49.7338371 µg/m³, based on three valid observations.
Data are shown via OpenAQ and reflect the current monitoring results for the city. This page is informational; for health guidance, use official sources such as EPA AirNow or WHO.

PM categories follow US EPA AQI breakpoints, shown here as an estimate derived from the latest valid measurements (this project does not compute EPA NowCast/24-hour AQI yet).
What the data includes
The air‑quality record for Drammen currently includes three measured pollutants – nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), particulate matter ≤10 µm (PM₁₀) and particulate matter ≤2.5 µg (PM₂.₅). Data come from seven individual sensor rows that are grouped into three monitoring stations across the city. All of the latest readings were recorded on 2026‑02‑10 at 18:00 UTC, which means every pollutant has a fresh observation that is less than one week old.
For PM₁₀ the highest value observed in the recent sample is 49.7338371 µg/m³ at the Vårveien station, while the median across the three rows sits at 18.443467 µg/m³ and the tenth percentile is just under 3 µg/m³. PM₂.₅ shows a broader spread: the maximum recorded concentration is 41.8969 µg/m³, also at Vårveien, with a median of 5.145972 µg/m³ and a tenth‑percentile value close to 0.23 µg/m³. NO₂ has only one reporting row, located at Bangeløkka, and that single measurement is 57.50151 µg/m³; because there are no additional rows the median, minimum and maximum are all identical.
The dataset therefore provides a fairly recent snapshot but its coverage is uneven. While PM₁₀ and PM₂.₅ each have three recent observations, NO₂ is represented by just one sensor, limiting spatial detail for that gas. All seven rows are classified as “updated within 7 days,” so there are no older or unknown‑timestamp entries, yet the small number of stations means conditions can still differ across neighborhoods and times not captured in this brief window.

Data notes
The data shown for Drammen is based on three valid measurements and was refreshed recently, having been updated within 3 days (last update: 2026‑02‑10 18:00 UTC). This snapshot reflects conditions at the time of sampling; air quality can differ across neighborhoods and change throughout the day, so values may not represent every location or moment in the city.
