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