Air quality today

The air quality in Quetta City Tehsil is currently classified as Unhealthy. The primary pollutant identified is PM2.5, and the latest measured concentration is 74.34 µg/m³. This determination is based on 45 valid observations collected from monitoring points within the city. No PM10 data are available for this assessment.

All measurements are reported through the OpenAQ platform, which aggregates data from participating sensors. The 45 observations provide the basis for the present Unhealthy rating. The concentration value is expressed in micrograms per cubic meter. The dataset reflects conditions captured during the most recent sampling period. This page is informational; for health guidance, use official sources such as EPA AirNow or WHO.

What the data includes

The Quetta City Tehsil dataset pulls from 12 monitoring stations and contains 65 individual measurement rows. Five pollutants are reported: PM1, PM2.5, relative humidity, temperature and particle count (UM003). The most recent timestamp across all parameters is 2026‑02‑10 22:00 UTC, and the freshness profile shows that 40 rows were recorded within the past 30 days while another 25 rows are older than 30 days; there are no measurements from the last week or today.

Across the recent and older records, PM1 values range from a low of 0.02 µg/m³ up to 101.64 µg/m³, with a median of about 24.37 µg/m³. PM2.5 spans 0.32 µg/m³ to 170.07 µg/m³, median 38.10 µg/m³. Relative humidity varies between 18.60 % and 40.47 %, median 36.90 %. Temperature measurements cover 7.88 °C to 33.67 °C, median 14.82 °C. The UM003 particle count ranges from 136.62 particles/cm³ to 6077.65 particles/cm³, median roughly 1 372.89 particles/cm³. These spreads indicate that while typical conditions sit near the median values, the dataset captures occasional spikes, especially for PM2.5 and UM003.

The coverage is uneven in time: half of the rows are older than a month, so the dataset reflects a mix of recent and historical conditions. Because the stations are limited to 12 locations, spatial variation within the city may not be fully represented, and the absence of any measurements from the last three days means that the most current air quality picture could differ from the reported medians. Users should keep in mind that conditions can change across neighborhoods and over short periods, and the available data provides a snapshot rather than a continuous real‑time view.
