Mind, high dust levels not only Paphos area....

Post by cyprusmax47 »

Yesterday Paphos weather looked like in Summer with this image of the Green Air webcam 10 AM and the temperature was in the low 20's.

unfortunately it was only one day like that. Today it is hot like in Summer (27c,10AM) but the air polluted with a lot of dust. PM 2.5 and PM 10 levels are too high to be healthy. Only one place in Troodos it is even higher.

I was too occupied yesterday to note the dust levels. At the moment, the PM 2.5 level is hovering around 10 µg/m³, where we are. This is quite low and harmless. Unfortunately, I have two systems measuring PM 1.0, 2.5 and 10 but one does not interface to a computer and the other is supposed to but does not. I also have a third one which is not yet in service.
