China issues first-ever red alert for fog<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

As if recent red alerts for smog weren’t bad enough, China has now issued its first-ever red alert for<\/span> the fog<\/span> to go along with them.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"China<\/a><\/p>\n

China’s national observatory issued the fog alert Tuesday in a number of northern and eastern regions.<\/span>
\nThat followed some 24 cities issuing red alerts for air pollution. Red is the most serious level in the country’s warning system.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"China<\/a><\/p>\n

Through Wednesday, thick fog in parts of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region will reduce visibility to less than 500 meters (about 547 yards), as well as in the provinces of Henan, Shandong, <\/span>Anhui<\/span>, and Jiangsu, the National Meteorological Center said. In extreme cases, visibility may fall below 50 meters (55 meters) in those regions.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The center also renewed an orange alert for smog in the same period in northern, eastern and central China, with smog continuing to blanket the regions since Friday.<\/span><\/p>\n

By Wednesday, the fog alert in Beijing had been downgraded to yellow, though the city issued a red alert for smog, according to the Beijing Meteorological Service.<\/span><\/div>\n
