Yellow Dust

Well this morning the yellow dust that blows in from China was very noticeable in the morning sky. Gross.

Yellow dust is actually dust from the eroding Gobi desert that is blown east across Beijing and the Yellow Sea. While most of it doesn't reach Korea enough does to make for some terrible air quality for a few days each spring.

On the plus side, it does keep temperatures a bit warmer, with today's high at 17 degrees.

Still, I'll be happy when it blows through.
