Air quality back in unhealthy range in central Singapore as haze persists


SINGAPORE: Air quality in some areas of Singapore entered the unhealthy range on Wednesday (Sep 9), with the 24-hour Pollutant Standards Index (PSI) standing at 102 in the central region as of 11pm, according to the National Environment Agency (NEA).

In its advisory on Sep 9, NEA said that moderate to dense smoke plumes continued to be detected from fires in southern and central Sumatra and Kalimantan, with some haze drifting towards Singapore. 

While some showers are forecast over central and northern Sumatra in the coming days, dry conditions are expected to persist over Kalimantan and southern Sumatra, resulting in a risk of haze in Singapore if fires persist.
