Mumbai weather updates: City's AQI in 'moderate' category
On November 18, the Central Pollution Control Board’s SAMEER app reported in its latest Mumbai weather updates that the city’s air quality remained in the 'moderate' category, with an Air Quality Index (AQI) of 144 at 9:05 AM.
Many areas across Mumbai—per the SAMEER app dashboard—showed 'moderate' AQI. Malad West and Worli's Siddharth Nagar recorded 'poor' air quality with an AQI of 224 and 221, respectively. Bandra Kurla Complex, Kandivali and Mulund recorded 'moderate' air quality with an AQI of 146, 116 and 117.
According to data from the SAMEER app, Navi Mumbai recorded air quality in the 'moderate' category with an AQI of 117, while Thane registered a 'moderate' AQI of 126.
The air quality index from 0 to 100 is considered 'good', 100 to 200 'moderate', 200 to 300 'poor', 300 to 400 'very poor' and from 400 to 500 or above 'severe'.
Meanwhile, as air pollution levels continue to rise in Mumbai, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has revised guidelines issued last year for construction sites. The civic body will also form squads at the ward level to visit construction sites and act if guidelines are flouted. Sensor-based air pollution monitoring systems will be installed at all construction project work sites and immediate action to be taken if pollution levels are detected above the limit.
