Information from the Meteorological Department reports that the wind direction is west, different from other days from the Gulf of Thailand.<\/p>\n<p>2. Data from the Suomi NPP satellite and the VIIRS system report that the western region, both within Thailand and neighboring countries, found quite a lot of hot spots during the 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p>3. On April 9 &#8211; 10, the ventilation rate will decrease from the present and must be closely monitored, but it is expected that the wind direction will return to being from the Gulf of Thailand.<\/p>\n<p>?Yellow criteria (between 25-37.5 micrograms per cubic meter): People in at-risk groups should use self-protection equipment such as a mask to protect against PM2.5 when outside.<\/p>\n<p>?Orange criteria (between 37.6-75 micrograms per cubic meter): The general public and at-risk groups should use personal protective equipment such as a mask to protect against PM2.5 when outside, limiting the amount of time spent in outdoor activities or exercising that uses a lot of energy.<\/p>\n<p>If you have any unusual health symptoms such as coughing, difficulty breathing, or eye irritation, you should consult a doctor.<br \/>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 Mr. Pornphrom Vikitsreth, Advisor to the Governor of  &hellip; <\/p>\n<p class=\"link-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pr-bangkok.com\/?p=297608\" class=\"more-link\">\u0e2d\u0e48\u0e32\u0e19\u0e40\u0e1e\u0e34\u0e48\u0e21\u0e40\u0e15\u0e34\u0e21<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;Bangkok Metropolitan Administration warns that dust values will likely increase on 2-8 April for 3 reasons, even though the ventilation rate is quite good.&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":297611,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[267],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-297608","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-eng0"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pr-bangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/297608","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pr-bangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pr-bangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pr-bangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pr-bangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=297608"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/pr-bangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/297608\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":297612,"href":"https:\/\/pr-bangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/297608\/revisions\/297612"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pr-bangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/297611"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pr-bangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=297608"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pr-bangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=297608"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pr-bangkok.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=297608"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
