Air quality today
The air quality in Pokhara today is classified as Unhealthy. The primary pollutant identified is PM2.5, with a measured concentration of 70.14 µg/m³ based on five valid observations reported through OpenAQ.
These measurements indicate that fine particulate matter dominates the current air composition. 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 Pokhara air‑quality dataset currently contains a single monitoring location – the CEN‑SR‑16 station at Pokhara Metropolitan City Ward No 7 Office – so there is one row of data for each measured variable. The available pollutants are PM1, PM2.5, relative humidity, temperature and particle count (UM003). All five parameters were last updated on 2026‑02‑10 at 22:00 UTC, meaning the newest observations are just a few days old and fall within the “updated within 7 days” freshness category.
For this snapshot, PM1 registers a concentration of 39.84 µg/m³, while PM2.5 is higher at 70.14 µg/m³; both values are identical across their minimum, median and maximum because only one measurement exists. Relative humidity is recorded at 53.39 % and temperature at 18.35 °C, again with no variation in the dataset. The particle‑count sensor (UM003) reports 2 992.99 particles per cubic centimetre, also without any spread.
Because the data come from a single station, there is no geographic spread across Pokhara and no temporal series to show changes over time. Consequently, the reported figures represent conditions at one point in the city rather than a broader picture. Users should keep in mind that air quality can differ between neighborhoods and throughout the day, so these numbers give only a limited view of current atmospheric conditions in Pokhara.
