- M3.1 · 54km NE of Surat, Gujarat, India10 Oct 2026, 2:07 AM
How is Bhavnagar's AQI calculated?
The Air Quality Index combines PM2.5, PM10, NO₂, SO₂, CO and O₃ readings from CPCB-monitored stations into one 0–500 score, using whichever pollutant reads worst as the overall number rather than an average of all of them. Bhavnagar's current AQI of 55 falls in the "Satisfactory" band (51–100).
Is Bhavnagar's air quality safe today?
Yes - Bhavnagar's AQI of 55 is in the "Satisfactory" range, CPCB's safest bands, with no outdoor activity restrictions.
Why does 30°C feel like 32°C in Bhavnagar?
"Feels like" factors in humidity and wind on top of the actual air temperature. At 54% humidity and 5 kph wind, Bhavnagar's air right now feels hotter than the thermometer reading - high humidity slows sweat evaporation, so your body sheds heat less efficiently than the raw air temperature alone would suggest.

Petrol is ₹103.41/L, diesel ₹99.53/L, for Bhavnagar. Fuel prices are revised daily and can vary slightly by station. The base crude and refinery cost is the same nationwide - state VAT and cess are what make petrol cheaper or pricier just across a state line.
Why does Bhavnagar's gold price match the national rate?
Gold is one national spot rate, not set city by city - Bhavnagar's price tracks the same international gold market and the day's USD/INR exchange rate as everywhere else in India.

What is Rahu Kalam in Bhavnagar today?

Why Check Bhavnagar's Weather and AQI?
Bhavnagar is home to the Alang Ship Breaking Yard, the world's largest ship-recycling facility, where vessels from across the globe are dismantled on the open shore. That single industry makes Bhavnagar's coastal weather - tides, wind and storm activity in particular - a direct operational factor for one of the largest industrial sites of its kind anywhere.
Ship-Breaking Industry Impact
Beaching and dismantling ships at Alang depends on tide timing and calm sea conditions, and monsoon storms or high seas can halt operations across the yard for days. Track Bhavnagar weather before planning around coastal operations here.

Nov-Feb: Cooler, Drier Season - Bhavnagar's most comfortable months and steadiest working conditions at Alang.
Mar-Jun: Hot, Dry Summer - Regularly exceeds 40°C.
Jun-Sep: Monsoon - Check Bhavnagar AQI and coastal storm warnings together during this stretch.
