I have no feel for the local weather patterns in the south but the haze has returned and is spreading northward. It is quite severe in six southern provinces.

Phuket seems to be below the "safe" level (105) of 120 per the chart.

Prayut voices alarm over haze

Multiple flights to South suffer delays

South's worst haze

Health of locals threatened as particulate matter far exceeds safe level; Flight to Trang and Krabi hit ; Indonesia apologetic

THE WORST haze crisis in 17 years hit Songkhla’s Hat Yai district hard yesterday, with the amount of PM10 particles far exceeding the safe level.

As of yesterday, the amount of particulate matter (PM) of up to 10 microns in size (PM10) reached 369.0 micrograms per cubic metre of air in Hat Yai, the economic hub of Thailand's South.
