Volcanic haze advisory in effect through Wednesday morning
The National Weather Service (NWS) Guam Weather Forecast Office issued a volcanic haze advisory, in effect
for Guam, Rota, Tinian, and Saipan through Wednesday morning. A band of haze is reaching the Marianas
along easterly trade-wind flow from the Hawaii region, likely originating from the recent Kilauea activity from
September 10 – 16. Depending on winds around the Marianas, the density of haze will be variable over the next few
days.
Reduced visibility to below 5 miles is expected. Persons with poor respiratory conditions may want to stay
indoors while the advisory is in effect.
