Air quality today
The air quality in Gostivar is currently classified as Moderate. The primary pollutant identified is PM2.5, with a measured concentration of 18.1 µg/m³, while PM10 stands at 24.062 µg/m³ based on ten valid observations.
Data are shown via OpenAQ and reflect the latest available readings for the city. This page is informational; for health guidance, use official sources such as EPA AirNow or WHO.
Latest sensor values
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 Gostivar air‑quality record draws on a single monitoring site that contributes 13 data rows covering seven measured pollutants: carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NO and NO₂), ozone (O₃), particulate matter of both 10 µm and 2.5 µm size fractions (PM10, PM2.5) and sulphur dioxide (SO₂). The most recent observations are fairly current for most gases: CO was last reported on 2026‑01‑26 at 17:00 UTC, while NO₂, O₃, PM10, PM2.5 and SO₂ all have updates from 2026‑02‑10 at 18:00 UTC, placing them within the past week. The lone NO measurement is older, recorded on 2024‑03‑11 at 12:00 UTC, and therefore reflects conditions from nearly two years ago.
Across the pollutants the recorded values show a wide spread for some species and tight clustering for others. CO stands out with an exceptionally high single reading of 1197.12 µg/m³, while NO₂ varies only between 5.73 and 5.921 µg/m³, giving a median of 5.8255 µg/m³ and a narrow inter‑percentile range (5.749 to 5.902 µg/m³). Ozone is similarly uniform at 21.4 µg/m³ for all reported points. Particulate matter shows modest variability: PM10 ranges from 24.062 to 26.057 µg/m³ with a median of about 25.06 µg/m³, and PM2.5 spans 18.1 to 22.9 µg/m³, median roughly 20.5 µg/m³. Sulphur dioxide is low but not constant, moving between 0.266 and 0.53199 µg/m³, median near 0.399 µg/m³.
Overall the dataset provides recent coverage for most pollutants, yet the single‑site setup means spatial representation across Gostivar is limited, and the outdated NO reading highlights an uneven temporal depth. Consequently, while the numbers give a snapshot of current air quality at one location, conditions elsewhere in the city may differ.
