SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, 15 Nov. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Ministry of Education of the Government of the Canary Islands has reported that, due to air quality, tomorrow, Tuesday, the teaching activity is suspended at the educational centers of El Paso, Los Llanos de Aridane, Tazacorte and Puntagorda, which go on to teaching in line.
Yesterday, the ash emission rate increased, which today mainly affects the north and west areas, due to weather conditions. It is expected that the thermal inversion will strengthen, which will be around 1,600-1,700 meters and a weak wind regime.
Although yesterday the levels of sulfur dioxide (SO2) were reasonably good and regular in Puntagorda and PM10 particles at good levels in all the stations of the island, except in Los Llanos, the values have been increasing at night and in these unfavorable levels are recorded at times. It is expected that very high concentration levels will be maintained in both parameters (PM10 and SO2) in the west zone throughout the day, given the predominance of winds from the east and southeast.
For this reason, it is recommended that the population of Los Llanos de Aridane, El Paso, Tazacorte, Tijarafe and Puntagorda reduce vigorous and / or prolonged activities outside as much as possible, and carry them out indoors or when the situation improves, In addition to remembering that updated information can be obtained on the website of the Government of the Canary Islands for Air Quality: https: //www3.gobiernodecanarias.org/medioambiente/calidaddel …
