Common questions: Port Dickson API

What is the API in Port Dickson right now?
The API in Port Dickson is 153 (Unhealthy) as of 14:00 MYT, 18 Oct, read at the Department of Environment's Port Dickson, NEGERI SEMBILAN station. Reduce outdoor activity. Sensitive groups should avoid it. Keep windows closed and wear an N95 if you must go out.
Which station represents Port Dickson?
Port Dickson's reading here comes from the Department of Environment's Port Dickson, NEGERI SEMBILAN station (CA25N), about 12 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 Port Dickson tomorrow?
The Open-Meteo (CAMS) model puts tomorrow's API at around 80 (Moderate). That is a modelled forecast, not an official Department of Environment reading.
What has the highest reading in Port Dickson been lately?
Over the last 30 days, the highest reading was 177 on 15 Oct. The daily average across that period was around 113.
Are schools in Port Dickson 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 153 is above 150. If it stays there for three days in a row, schools close.
When is haze season in Port Dickson?
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.
