Very high PM 2.5 reading for the next 2 hours...

Post by cyprusmax47 »

There is a very bad air quality for the next two hours with a high reading on PM 2.5 particles..... Mind! The PM 10 are not so bad, though

Thank you for the link Dominic, it tells me more than I already knew...

The problem is that PM 2.5 cannot be measured in Paphos and Limassol areas, while Zygi, Larnaca, Nicosia, Ayia Napa and Xyliatos area there are stations which can.!

It's been very bad over Egypt for several days.... Been keeping an eye on my weather app in anticipation of an upcoming trip 🤣
