PSI 323
Some time ago, I posted photos of the views from my apartment windows. Here's what I'm seeing this morning.

EPIC SMOG
For those of us who live to tell the tale, the last few days have been rather dramatic for Singapore. Fast-food deliveries have been cancelled, the army has suspended field training, and face masks, air purifiers and eye drops are flying off the shelves. The smog, caused by the illegal burning of forests on Indonesia’s Sumatra island, is a persistent problem for us every year.
This year's smoke haze, however, might well be chronicalized. Yesterday at 1PM, our pollution standards index (PSI) soared to a smothering 371. We all held our breaths and wonder if the number will rise further. Today at 12PM the reading breached 400. If the air quality value is considered hazardous at 300, then what of 401?
It is time to shop for important things.
