Air quality today

The air quality in Râmnicu Vâlcea is classified as Good today. The primary pollutant identified is PM10, and the measured concentration for this component is approximately 21.9 µg/m³ based on nine valid observations reported through OpenAQ.

Overall conditions meet the criteria for a Good rating, reflecting low levels of particulate matter in the ambient air. This page is informational; for health guidance, use official sources such as EPA AirNow or WHO.

What the data includes

Râmnicu Vâlcea’s air‑quality feed includes five measured pollutants – carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), ozone (O3), particulate matter up to 10 µm (PM10) and sulfur dioxide (SO2). The dataset contains ten recent observation rows drawn from two monitoring stations, all of which were last refreshed on 2026‑02‑10 at 19:00 UTC, so the newest timestamps are uniformly fresh and fall within the “updated within seven days” window.

The recorded values show a fairly wide spread for each gas. CO ranges from a low of 196.27 µg/m³ to a high of 394.91 µg/m³, with a median around 295.59 µg/m³; NO2 varies between 13.39 and 18.43 µg/m³, centering near 15.91 µg/m³; O3 spans 14.60 to 25.30 µg/m³, with a typical level of about 19.95 µg/m³. PM10 values are comparatively narrow, moving from 15.43 up to 21.91 µg/m³ and clustering around a median of 18.67 µg/m³. SO2 shows the smallest absolute range, from 4.85 to 8.06 µg/m³, with a middle value near 6.45 µg/m³.

Because all ten rows are recent, the data give a current snapshot rather than a long‑term trend. However, the limited number of stations (only two) means spatial coverage across the city is modest; conditions may differ in neighborhoods not directly monitored. The spread between minimum and maximum readings is especially pronounced for CO, suggesting variability that could be linked to localized sources or traffic patterns, while PM10 and SO2 exhibit tighter distributions. Overall, the dataset provides up‑to‑date measurements for all five pollutants but reflects a relatively small monitoring network, so readers should keep in mind that air quality can change across different parts of Râmnicu Vâlcea.
