Tianjin Issues Orange Alert for Smog... Again

By Justine Lopez

The environmental protection bureau has now issued the third smog alert of 2018 and the second orange alert for Tianjin this month, Reuters reports.

The latest bout of pollution will hover over the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region from Monday until Wednesday.

An orange alert is the second-highest warning in China's four-tier system. Orange alerts are issued when the AQI is expected to exceed 200 for three consecutive days, with one of those days surpassing 300. 

Time to bust out those masks... again.
