Haze: The sky is blue



PETALING JAYA: Rain over central Sumatra the past few days helped to douse the raging fires there, bringing blue skies to most parts of the country.

It was reported that "short bursts" of rain in Riau, Indonesia saw the number of hotspots around Pekanbaru fall from 250 on Tuesday to 54 on Wednesday.

Winds over Dumai, the report added, helped to clear the haze in the region.

The change in weather there has brought rain in several areas in West Malaysia, with storms breaking out on Tuesday in the Klang Valley as well as in Perak, Johor, Negri Sembilan, Malacca and Terengganu.

What a relief! Today's weather is much better, hardly any haze. The sky is visible. It rained the past couple of days and it is forecast that there will be more rain in the coming days. Hopefully they don't start anymore fires after this!
