Air quality in Muratpaşa right now
Right now the modelled US Air Quality Index for Muratpaşa, Antalya, Turkey is 52, which falls in the "Moderate" band (up to 100). Acceptable for most people. Unusually sensitive people should consider shortening long or heavy exertion outdoors.
The index is driven mainly by PM2.5, whose own sub-index is 52. Fine and coarse particles come from traffic, heating, industry, dust and smoke; they build up on calm nights and clear when wind or rain arrives.

Also this hour: carbon monoxide 168 µg/m³.
NASA FIRMS shows 95 fire hotspots within 300 km in the last day (nearest about 49 km), but particle levels are not elevated enough to point to smoke right now.
