Smoke from forest fires threathen Medan flights MEDAN - Smoke from forest fires starts to cause problems for flights from and to the airport of Medan, Polonia. Normally there is a sight of around six kilometers, but this has now dropped to only three. Strong winds from the forest fires in the direction of the airport and rainfall have caused thickening smoke around the airport.

Since three days, there is a forest fire in a pine tree forest in the area of Padanglawas. There are also forest fires in the southern province of Riau. According to Firman, an employee of the Meteorological and Geophysics Agency BMG, there are currently 121 hot spots, up from yesterday's 104 hot spots. There are hot spots in Padanglawas, Tapanuli Selatan and Riau. Firman said that the situation could worsen if there area has stable weather without much wind.

"However there is still rainfall in the area of Medan, the visibility is still influenced and flights will be influenced by the forest fires that has been lit by people that want to clear forest to turn them into fields," Firman said. Based on the latest information, all flights in and from Medan's Polonia airport still run as scheduled.
