Air quality today

The air quality in Nice today is classified as Good. The primary pollutant identified for the current assessment is PM2.5 (fine particles).

Measurements from eight valid sampling points show a PM2.5 reference value of 3.0 µg/m³ and a PM10 reference value of 6.5 µg/m³, as reported by OpenAQ. This page is informational; for health guidance, use official sources such as EPA AirNow or WHO.

What the data includes

The dataset for Nice includes five measured pollutants – nitrogen monoxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), ozone (O₃), particulate matter ≤10 µm (PM10) and particulate matter ≤2.5 µg (PM2.5). In total 13 rows of observations are recorded across six monitoring stations, giving a modest spatial coverage for the city.

Freshness varies by pollutant. The most recent values for PM2.5, O₃, NO₂, and PM10 were all logged on 2026‑02‑10 at 15:00 UTC, each flagged as “updated within 3 days”. By contrast, the latest NO reading dates back to 2024‑03‑11 at 09:00 UTC and is marked as “old data”, indicating a gap of nearly two years for that metric. Overall, five of the thirteen rows are recent (within three days), while six rows are older than three days and two have no timestamp information.

The observed concentrations show limited spread for most pollutants. PM2.5 values range from 0.0 to 14.0 µg/m³ with a median of 1.5 µg/m³; O₃ varies between 70.5 and 81.3 µg/m³, median 71.9 µg/m³; NO stays tightly clustered around 18.8–18.9 µg/m³, median 18.85 µg/m³; NO₂ spans 13.0 to 31.7 µg/m³ with a median of 22.35 µg/m³; PM10 ranges from 6.5 to 19.0 µg/m³, median 12.75 µg/m³. The 10th‑percentile values are close to the minima for each pollutant, while the 90th‑percentiles sit near the upper ends of the observed ranges, indicating that most recent measurements fall within a relatively narrow band.

Because some pollutants (notably NO) rely on older data and the overall number of stations is limited, the snapshot does not capture the full temporal or geographic variability of air quality in Nice. Conditions can differ across neighborhoods and over time, so the figures presented represent only the latest available points from this modest sensor network.

Data notes

The dataset for Nice includes eight valid measurements and is updated within three days, with the most recent data recorded on 2026‑02‑10 at 15:00 UTC. These values provide a current snapshot of ambient conditions but reflect only the specific monitoring points used; air quality can vary across different neighborhoods and times of day throughout the city.
