Air quality today
The air quality in Nale District is classified as Moderate today. The primary pollutant identified is PM2.5 (fine particles). Measurements show a PM2.5 concentration of 24.15 µg/m³ based on five valid observations recorded by OpenAQ.
Data for other pollutants are not available, and the assessment relies solely on the reported PM2.5 value. 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 dataset for Nale District in Luang Namtha currently contains five rows of observations drawn from a single monitoring site, identified as Nalae ‑ Louangnamtha. All five pollutant measurements were recorded at the same moment – 2026‑02‑10 20:00 UTC – and are flagged as having been updated within the past seven days, so the data are fresh for each parameter.
The available pollutants are PM1 (14.98 µg/m³), PM2.5 (24.15 µg/m³), relative humidity (55.99 %), temperature (22.11 °C) and UM003 particle count (911.72 particles/cm³). Because there is only one station, each pollutant shows a single value: the minimum, median and maximum are identical, and the 10th‑ and 90th‑percentile figures match that same number. This means the current snapshot does not capture variability over time or across different locations within the district.
Even though the timestamps are recent, the limited spatial coverage – just one monitoring point – suggests that conditions may differ in other parts of Nale District. The data set therefore provides a precise but narrow view: each pollutant is represented by one fresh measurement, with no spread to illustrate short‑term fluctuations or broader geographic patterns. Users should keep in mind that while the figures are up‑to‑date, they reflect only the conditions at the Nalae ‑ Louangnamtha site on a single occasion.
