On August 28, the Malaysian Meteorological Department (MetMalaysia) issued a warning that several regions across Malaysia, including six states, may experience worsening haze conditions through August 31. Director-general Mohd Hisham Mohd Anip attributed the unfavorable weather to the influence of south-westerly winds and a significant number of hotspots in southern Sumatra and western Kalimantan.
The MyCMAQ haze concentration forecast predicts that Sarawak could be the most severely affected area, with many districts expected to face hazy weather reaching the Unhealthy level. Several districts may even reach the Very Unhealthy level on August 30 and 31. MetMalaysia also forecasted hazy conditions in Sabah starting on Saturday, while high haze concentrations could impact Johor, Melaka, Negri Sembilan, Selangor, Kuala Lumpur, and Putrajaya until the end of the month.
