Smog Alert: China’s Ultra-Fine Dust Invades, But Relief is in Sight for Tomorrow
Midwest Air Quality Worsens Due to Smog from China
The National Institute of Environmental Research has announced that the influx of smog from China has led to a deterioration in air quality in parts of the Midwest. The smog, combined with domestic fine dust accumulation, resulted in a temporary ‘bad’ level of ultrafine dust concentration.
According to recent data, the concentration of ultrafine dust in Songnim-dong, Dong-gu, Incheon reached 78㎍ per cubic meter, causing the area to temporarily reach ‘bad’ levels by the afternoon. Similarly, Chungcheongnam-do also experienced poor air quality in the afternoon.
Fortunately, the National Institute of Environmental Research predicts that air quality will improve as air congestion is resolved. The air is expected to be pleasant nationwide tomorrow and the day after.
