The General Meteorological Office has issued a yellow alert.

The General Department of Meteorology of Tehran Province has issued a yellow level warning, referring to the relative stability of the atmosphere and the absence of significant wind during the night and at the beginning of the day in high-traffic urban areas: Tuesday to Wednesday (October 21 to 22), an increase in atmospheric pollutants, especially suspended particles smaller than 2.5 microns, is expected in the central and southern areas of Tehran. In this situation, the reduction of air quality to an unhealthy level for sensitive groups, and if the sources of atmospheric pollutants are not controlled, sometimes unhealthy air for all groups in the high-traffic areas of the central and southern areas of Tehran is not far from expected.

A yellow level warning means that an atmospheric phenomenon will occur that may cause disruptions in travel and daily activities. This warning is issued for people's awareness so that they can be prepared to face an atmospheric phenomenon that is slightly more intense than usual. On the other hand, the authorities are informed about these warnings so that they can take measures if necessary.
