Residents in China's capital city have been dealing its smog for years, but things got especially out of hand earlier in the week when air pollution levels shot to a 13-month high.

Beijing continues to grapple with the smog. On Wednesday, the city managed to breathe again after strong winds helped to clear up the skies somewhat, offering residents a bit of respite from the air pollution, which was raised to a new "orange" alert level on Monday.
