Common questions: Kuala Terengganu API
- What is the API in Kuala Terengganu right now?
- The API in Kuala Terengganu is 55 (Moderate) as of 06:00 MYT, 4 Nov, read at the Department of Environment's Kuala Terengganu, TERENGGANU station. Sensitive people (asthma, elderly, children) should cut back on long or strenuous outdoor activity.
- Which station represents Kuala Terengganu?
- Kuala Terengganu's reading here comes from the Department of Environment's Kuala Terengganu, TERENGGANU station (CA44T), 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 Kuala Terengganu tomorrow?
- The Open-Meteo (CAMS) model puts tomorrow's API at around 13 (Good). That is a modelled forecast, not an official Department of Environment reading.
- What has the highest reading in Kuala Terengganu been lately?
- Over the last 30 days, the highest reading was 165 on 11 Oct. The daily average across that period was around 70.
- Are schools in Kuala Terengganu 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 55 is well below that level.
- When is haze season in Kuala Terengganu?
- 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.
