Haze pushes air quality across Singapore into unhealthy range for first time in 7 years
Moderate to dense smoke plumes from fires in Kalimantan have drifted towards Singapore, said the National Environment Agency.
On Tuesday morning (Sep 15), Singapore's air quality deteriorated to the unhealthy range for the first time in seven years, according to the National Environment Agency. Smoke plumes from wildfires in Kalimantan, Indonesia, contributed to the haze. All five regions of the city-state recorded unhealthy PSI levels. The PSI hit 154 in the central region at one point. The National Environment Agency warned that dry conditions and prevailing southeast to east-southeast winds would likely keep the haze affecting Singapore.
