Hazy conditions likely to persist
National Environment Agency said the 24-hour PSI in Singapore is expected to fluctuate between the high end of the "moderate" range, and the low end of the "unhealthy" range.
SINGAPORE: The hazy conditions that affected Singapore on Saturday (11 Oct) are likely to persist, even though thundery showers are expected on Sunday afternoon (12 Oct).
The National Environment Agency (NEA) said this is due to smoke haze from the surrounding region blown in by the prevailing winds.
Air quality hovered in the "unhealthy" range overnight - at 105 at 1am, and at 108 at 2am and 3am on Sunday. It started slipping to the "moderate" range at 6am, with a reading of 99.
NEA said the overall 24-hour PSI for Singapore is expected to fluctuate between the high end of the "moderate" range and the low end of the "unhealthy" range.
Those who are likely to fall ill due to the haze should reduce or avoid outdoor activities and physical exertion, said NEA.
