SINGAPORE – Singaporeans may get some respite from the haze on Oct 26, as “good to moderate” air quality is expected across the island.

In its daily haze advisory on the evening of Oct 25, the National Environment Agency (NEA) said the PSI is forecast to be in the range of 70 to 100.

Air quality is considered good to moderate when the PSI – a 24-hour rolling average of six key air pollutants – is in the range of zero to 100, and unhealthy when it is in the range of 101 to 200.

NEA said that showers are expected over Singapore and nearby areas on Oct 26.

“With winds expected to blow from the south-west or west, the likelihood of smoke haze affecting Singapore may be reduced,” it said.

It added that this is expected to continue on Oct 27 and 28, as showers over Singapore and the vicinity should lead to an improvement in the haze situation.

The hourly PM2.5 readings returned to normal across all five regions in Singapore on the morning of Oct 25, while the 24-hour PSI levels showed a more gradual decrease.

While smoke haze was observed over Kalimantan, it did not drift towards Singapore, said NEA.

At 7pm, PSI readings were in the “good to moderate” range in four parts of Singapore – the north (94), south (91), east (99), and central (97) regions.

The reading in the west of the island was still in the unhealthy band, at 107.

Meanwhile, the PM2.5 readings ranged between 22 and 31, within the “normal” band.

PM2.5 readings are gauged hourly and reflect the current air quality. Scores from zero to 55 represent normal values, and those between 56 and 150 indicate an elevated concentration of fine particles.
