Common questions: Batu Pahat API

What is the API in Batu Pahat right now?
The API in Batu Pahat is 54 (Moderate) as of 06:00 MYT, 4 Nov, read at the Department of Environment's Batu Pahat, JOHOR station. Sensitive people (asthma, elderly, children) should cut back on long or strenuous outdoor activity.
Which station represents Batu Pahat?
Batu Pahat's reading here comes from the Department of Environment's Batu Pahat, JOHOR station (CA31J), about 10 km from the city centre. One station does not represent a whole city, so other parts of it can read differently.
What will the haze be like in Batu Pahat tomorrow?
The Open-Meteo (CAMS) model puts tomorrow's API at around 23 (Good). That is a modelled forecast, not an official Department of Environment reading.
What has the highest reading in Batu Pahat been lately?
Over the last 30 days, the highest reading was 211 on 6 Oct. The daily average across that period was around 127.
Are schools in Batu Pahat closed because of haze?
Since October 2026, schools in an affected area close when the API goes above 180, or stays above 150 for three days in a row, on the instruction of the Ministry of Education or the State Education Department, not from this number alone. The current reading of 54 is well below that level.
When is haze season in Batu Pahat?
The Peninsula's west coast has two risky windows: February to April, when haze is more local, and July to October, the worst window, when the southwest monsoon carries smoke from regional forest and peatland fires. El Niño years are usually worse.
