China News Service, Beijing, March 27 (Reporter Ruan Yulin) The China Environmental Monitoring Center predicts that from the 27th to the 28th, due to the impact of sand and dust weather processes, moderate or above-level pollution may occur in Northeast China, North China, Northwest China and other places.

  The forecast shows that on the 27th, the southeastern part of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and surrounding areas will be dominated by southerly winds, and the northwest wind will gradually strengthen in the north. Affected by the sand and dust weather process in the upstream areas, severe and above pollution may occur in central Inner Mongolia; in the central and northern parts of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and western Shandong are dominated by light to moderate pollution, while other areas are dominated by good to mild pollution, and the primary pollutant is mainly inhalable particulate matter (PM10).

  Forecasts show that from the 27th to the 28th, due to the influence of sand and dust weather processes, moderate or above pollution may occur in Northeast, North China, and Northwest China. From the 27th to the 28th, local areas in North China may experience mild or above pollution due to the impact of upstream dust transmission. Affected by sand and dust weather processes, eastern Inner Mongolia, central and western Jilin, southwestern and eastern Heilongjiang, and central and western Liaoning are mainly lightly polluted, and some cities may reach moderate pollution. Among them, on the 27th, moderate pollution may occur in Guanzhong of Shaanxi, Longdong of Gansu, most of Ningxia, and northern Shanxi, and severe and above pollution may occur in northern Shaanxi, central and western Ningxia, and western Inner Mongolia; on the 28th, central and western Ningxia and northern Shanxi may experience severe pollution.
