In Karamay the air is moderate right now (approximate, US EPA scale). From 17:00 to 03:00 local time the city mean PM2.5 stayed roughly level: from 19.7 to 19.0 µg/m³. The highest hour was 00:00 with 30.3 µg/m³.

Light wind (1 m/s) in the evening or at night, as the air cools, possibly traps particles near the ground (a temperature inversion). High humidity (91%) possibly makes optical sensors read somewhat higher.

Weather now: cloudy, 7°C, wind 1 m/s, humidity 91%. No major change in the wind is expected in the coming hours. By 17:00 the temperature will be about 10°C.
