Impact & Risks

The moderate AQI level indicates that air pollution may pose a minor health risk to sensitive groups, such as individuals with respiratory conditions or heart diseases. Elevated temperatures, particularly above normal levels, could lead to discomfort for residents, especially during outdoor activities. The lack of rainfall and low wind speeds further contribute to stagnant air, potentially exacerbating pollution levels in the coming days.
