The sky in the Kathmandu Valley turns hazy due to seasonal dry winds and rising levels of PM2.5 and PM10 from construction activities on December 3, 2025. The mountains, clearly visible just a week ago, are now barely seen as AQI levels across the valley reach 180-250 (Unhealthy). The worsening air quality reduces visibility and causes eye irritation, throat discomfort, and breathing difficulties for residents.
