Common questions: Kemaman API

What is the API in Kemaman right now?
The API in Kemaman is 63 (Moderate) as of 14:00 MYT, 18 Oct, read at the Department of Environment's Kemaman, TERENGGANU station. Sensitive people (asthma, elderly, children) should cut back on long or strenuous outdoor activity.
Which station represents Kemaman?
Kemaman's reading here comes from the Department of Environment's Kemaman, TERENGGANU station (CA42T), about 3 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 Kemaman tomorrow?
The Open-Meteo (CAMS) model puts tomorrow's API at around 79 (Moderate). That is a modelled forecast, not an official Department of Environment reading.
What has the highest reading in Kemaman been lately?
Over the last 30 days, the highest reading was 161 on 11 Oct. The daily average across that period was around 94.
Are schools in Kemaman 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 63 is well below that level.
When is haze season in Kemaman?
The Peninsula's east coast is most at risk from July to October, during the southwest monsoon and the peak of regional fires. The February to April dry season usually hits the west coast harder than here.
