PETALING JAYA: Despite recent bouts of rain clearing up some hotspots across the country, people have been reminded to be on the guard for sudden incidents during the inter-monsoon season.

A Department of Environment (DOE) official said although most areas in the southern region of Asean were expected to get frequent rainfall, hotspots and plumes of smoke may occur in the drier areas of a country, as is happening currently in Kelantan.
