Singapore's National Environment Agency (NEA) expects the Republic's 24-hour Pollutant Standard Index (PSI) to be in the moderate to low unhealthy range.
Air quality in Singapore remained in the moderate range for a second consecutive day on Monday (Sept 7), continuing an improved trend recorded since 9pm on Saturday.
At 10am on Monday, the central region recorded a 24-hour PSI reading of 92, with 1-hour PM2.5 at 27 — in the normal range.
NEA noted in its daily update on Monday that moderate to dense smoke plumes from fires in southern and central Sumatra, as well as West Kalimantan, are continuing to drift towards Singapore.
The agency said that with dry conditions expected to persist over Singapore and southern and central Sumatra, there is a risk of transboundary smoke haze affecting the country, if the fires continue.
The 24-hour PSI forecast for Singapore is therefore in the moderate to low unhealthy range, it added.
Checks on the NEA's haze microsite indicate that all regions in Singapore recorded moderate 24-hour PSI readings.
One-hour PM2.5 reading is in the normal band.
Members of the public should note that the health impact of haze is dependent on one's health status, the PSI level, and the length and intensity of outdoor activity.
Those who are planning to conduct or participate in outdoor activities immediately can check the 1-hour PM2.5 concentration readings and vulnerable persons guide.
Meanwhile, those who are planning outdoor activities for the next day should use the 24-hour PSI forecast and the corresponding health advisories for planning.
新加坡国家环境局 (NEA) 预计，新加坡 24 小时污染物标准指数 (PSI) 将处于中低不健康范围内。
新加坡空气质量周一（9月7日）连续第二天保持在中等水平，延续了自周六晚上9点以来的改善趋势。
周一上午 10 点，中部地区 24 小时 PSI 读数为 92，1 小时 PM2.5 为 27——处于正常范围内。
新加坡国家环境局周一在其每日更新中指出，苏门答腊南部和中部以及西加里曼丹的火灾产生的中等至浓烟正继续向新加坡飘移。
该机构表示，由于预计新加坡以及苏门答腊南部和中部地区将持续干旱，如果火灾继续蔓延，跨境烟霾可能会影响该国。
报告补充说，因此，新加坡24小时PSI指数预测处于中低不健康范围。
新加坡国家环境局的雾霾微网站显示，新加坡所有地区的 24 小时 PSI 读数均为中等。
一小时PM2.5读数处于正常范围内。
公众应注意，雾霾对健康的影响取决于个人的健康状况、PSI 值以及户外活动的持续时间和强度。
计划立即进行或参与户外活动的人员可以查看 1 小时 PM2.5 浓度读数和易感人群指南。
同时，计划第二天进行户外活动的人们应该参考 24 小时 PSI 预报和相应的健康建议进行规划。
