Kazhydromet issued warning for Astana and Almaty residents

Tengrinews.kz - Kazhydromet has issued an air pollution warning for residents of Astana, Almaty, and several other cities across Kazakhstan.

"On March 26, 2025, unfavorable meteorological conditions for air pollution are expected in the cities of Aktobe, Astana, Almaty, and Kostanay," the statement said.

Such conditions arise due to a combination of short-term meteorological factors—including calm winds, light breezes, fog, and temperature inversions—that contribute to the accumulation of pollutants in the lower layers of the atmosphere.
