Air quality in many urban areas across Sri Lanka remained at slightly unhealthy levels over the past 24 hours, according to data released by the National Building Research Organisation (NBRO).
Areas such as Colombo, Jaffna, Kandy, Kurunegala, and Galle recorded Sri Lanka Air Quality Index (SL AQI) levels between 104 and 144, primarily due to elevated PM2.5 levels.
In contrast, Nuwara Eliya, Mullaitivu, Batticaloa, and several southern and eastern towns remained within moderate air quality levels.
NBRO forecasts indicate that slightly unhealthy conditions are expected to continue through the next 24 hours in most cities, with SL AQI values projected to range between 48 and 140.
