According to Zakon.kz, on January 2, 2026, a deterioration in air quality is expected in five cities of Kazakhstan, according to a warning from meteorologists.

Specialists from "Kazhydromet" report that adverse meteorological conditions will affect cities such as Astana, Almaty, Ust-Kamenogorsk, Semey, and Ridder.

Adverse meteorological conditions (AMC) represent a combination of short-term weather phenomena, such as calm, light winds, fog, and inversion, which contribute to the accumulation of pollutants in the lower layers of the atmosphere.

Under AMC conditions, residents are advised to minimize their time outdoors, especially near roads and other sources of pollution. People with chronic respiratory diseases, cardiovascular conditions, or allergies are recommended to carry necessary medications when going outside.
