Miri, Sri Aman, and Samarahan Record Unhealthy Air Pollution Index Levels

As of 9am today, Miri, Sri Aman, and Samarahan have recorded Air Pollution Index (API) levels categorised as unhealthy. Sri Aman reported the highest reading at 122, followed by Samarahan at 105, and Miri at 101. These readings fall within the unhealthy range, which is defined as an API level between 101 and 200.
Sri Aman Exceeds Unhealthy Threshold

Sri Aman registered an API of 122, placing it firmly in the unhealthy category. This level indicates that air quality poses a risk to public health, and individuals with pre-existing respiratory conditions are advised to take precautions. The unhealthy classification signifies that pollutant concentrations are significant enough to warrant attention.
Samarahan and Miri Also Show Unhealthy Readings

Samarahan recorded an API level of 105, also classified as unhealthy. Similarly, Miri’s API reached 101, crossing the threshold into the unhealthy zone. These readings suggest a general decline in air quality across these regions due to the prevailing conditions.
Haze Conditions Potentially Prolonged by Indonesian Hotspots and Wind Direction

The current haze situation is potentially prolonged due to an increase in hotspots in Indonesia and the direction of the wind. Hazy winds originating from Kalimantan, Indonesia, are expected to impact Kuching, Samarahan, and Sri Aman. The number of hotspots detected in Kalimantan has reportedly tripled compared to the previous day, contributing significantly to the regional air quality issues. While four hotspots were detected within Sarawak, the majority of the 462 hotspots recorded in Indonesia were concentrated in Kalimantan.
