SINGAPORE: Air quality in the central region of Singapore returned to the unhealthy range on Saturday (Sep 19). The 24-hour Pollutant Standards Index (PSI) in the region hit 102 at 1pm, crossing into the unhealthy band. Air quality remained in the moderate range for the other regions of the country.
PSI readings have dipped in and out of the unhealthy range over the past weeks. The central region last recorded unhealthy air quality on Thursday evening . On Tuesday, all five regions of Singapore recorded unhealthy air quality levels, marking the first time this has happened since September 2019.
On Friday, the National Environment Agency (NEA) said in its daily haze advisory that the 24-hour PSI was forecast to be in the high moderate to low unhealthy range. There is a risk of smoke haze affecting Singapore as the prevailing winds are expected to blow from the east-southeast or southeast, it said.
"Dry conditions persisted over southern Sumatra and Kalimantan," said NEA, adding that smoke plumes from fires in Kalimantan were observed to drift towards Singapore. Some smoke plumes were also observed in southern Sumatra, it added.

新加坡：新加坡中部地区的空气质量于周六（9月19日）再次降至不健康水平。该地区24小时空气污染指数（PSI）在下午1点达到102，进入不健康范围。新加坡其他地区的空气质量仍处于中等水平。
过去几周，空气质量指数（PSI）读数在不健康范围内波动。中部地区上一次记录到不健康空气质量是在上周四晚上。周二，新加坡所有五个地区的空气质量均达到不健康水平，这是自2019年9月以来首次出现这种情况。
周五，国家环境局在其每日雾霾预警中表示，预计24小时空气污染指数（PSI）将处于中高至低不健康范围内。预警指出，由于盛行风向预计为东南偏东或东南风，新加坡存在受到烟霾影响的风险。
新加坡国家环境局表示，“苏门答腊南部和加里曼丹岛持续干旱”，并补充说，观测到加里曼丹岛火灾产生的烟雾飘向新加坡。环境局还表示，苏门答腊南部也观测到一些烟雾。
