Haze to return?

The Meteorological Services Department said that the haze might be returning to the Klang Valley as early as Monday due to change in wind direction.

Meteorological Services Department director-general Chow Kok Kee said the present south, south-westerly winds, which had taken the haze elsewhere and brought some relief to the country would revert to its south-westerly course, bringing with it drier conditions.

“The south-westerly wind is expected to last between two to three weeks,” he said during a press conference at the department.

Well, let's hope the fire in Sumatra could be doused as soon as possible. Having haze for the next two to three weeks is definitely not something the Klang Valley folks are looking forward to.
