The Air Quality Index (AQI) recorded a decrease in pollution levels, though the reading remained in the moderate range. Authorities noted that the improvement was likely due to lighter wind conditions and reduced industrial activity over the weekend.
Local environmental agencies continue to monitor air quality closely, especially during periods of high humidity and temperature. The AQI reading of 136 is below the threshold for unhealthy air, but residents are advised to limit prolonged outdoor exertion during peak pollution hours.
