Air quality today

The air quality in Kirtipur Municipality is currently classified as Unhealthy. The primary pollutant identified is PM2.5, with a measured concentration of 77.49 µg/m³ based on twenty valid observations reported through OpenAQ.

This assessment reflects the latest available data for the area. This page is informational; for health guidance, use official sources such as EPA AirNow or WHO.

What the data includes

Kirtipur’s OpenAQ feed currently contains six measured variables – PM1, PM2.5, PM10, relative humidity, temperature and the particle count UM003 – drawn from a total of 26 recent data rows collected at five monitoring sites in the municipality. For most pollutants the latest reading was recorded on 2026‑02‑10 at 22:00 UTC, which falls within the “updated within 7 days” freshness category used by OpenAQ. The exception is PM10, for which only a single value (52.54 µg/m³) is available and its timestamp is not reported, so its recency cannot be confirmed.

The numeric spread shows that fine‑particle concentrations vary considerably across the sampled period. PM1 values range from about 27 µg/m³ up to 42 µg/m³, with a median near 39 µg/m³; PM2.5 spans a broader interval of roughly 43 µg/m³ to 78 µg/m³ and a median of 69 µg/m³, indicating higher typical levels for the smaller fraction. Relative humidity measurements sit between 30 % and 52 %, centering around 46 %; temperature readings cover 15.5 °C to 29.5 °C with a median close to 17.5 °C. The UM003 particle count ranges from about 2,800 to 5,800 particles per cubic centimetre, with a typical value near 3,166.

Because the dataset includes only five stations and most rows are recent, the information gives a snapshot of current air‑quality conditions but does not capture fine spatial variation across the whole city. The lack of up‑to‑date PM10 data and the single recorded value for that metric further limit a complete picture. Users should keep in mind that actual conditions can differ by neighbourhood and time of day, especially where monitoring coverage is sparse.

Data notes

The data shown for Kirtipur Municipality is based on 20 valid measurements and was updated within 3 days, with the latest refresh recorded at 2026‑02‑10T22:00:00+00:00. This snapshot reflects conditions measured at specific monitoring points and times; air quality can differ across neighborhoods and fluctuate throughout the day, so values may not represent every location or moment in the city.
