National Environment Agency Haze Forecast and Air Quality
In its daily haze situation update published on the evening of October 24, 2026, the National Environment Agency noted that incoming showers would likely limit the transport of smoke haze toward Singapore by shifting prevailing winds to blow from the southeast or west. The agency stated that air quality remained stable, with hourly PM2.5 readings holding firmly in the normal band islandwide at 6:00 p.m. Looking ahead to October 26 and October 27, 2026, the agency expects the regional haze situation to improve further as forecasted showers continue across the territory.
