For the past day, the PSI has been in the "moderate" range. The latest 24-h PM2.5 levels from the Singapore NEA show levels in the range 40-92 µg/m3, well below the peak of 300 we experienced last week. (But still above health-based standards that would apply in the US and in many other countries.) Visibility is much better, too, as you can see from these photos. These are close to the same scenes shot last week in the heavy haze. However, now I am restricted to shooting through the windows. The doors to the balcony are locked, with a sign "Due to the high PSI level, this door is locked during this period of time." Yeah, right. The door is hardly used at all and the consequences of using it for air quality in the building are surely negligible.

What time of day were these taken. It looks like pretty dawn light, but maybe that's just the pollution
These were morning shots, about 9 AM. Sunrise here is at 7 AM. They are definitely not showing pretty dawn light. The first three are looking east, toward the sun, which makes the effect of the haze stronger. The last one is looking west, with the sun behind us.
