That sulphurous atmosphere is called

  V O G: Volcanic Smog.

*Scratchy Throat*

*Dull headache*

*Cough Cough*

*Breathing issues*

 

Fortunately, Honolulu 

usually enjoys a 

North Pacific High

parked north of us,

driving Trade Winds,

the islands'

 natural air conditioning.

But since last Saturday,

Southerly winds have 

crashed our weather party,

bringing haze from 

Kīlauea volcano

 on the Big Island,

[  4,190 feet (1,277 m) high ]

Erupting since

 January 3, 1983

!

Kīlauea means "spewing" 

or "much spreading"

 in the Hawaiian language, 

referring to its

 prodigious production

  of lava,
or in this case
HAZE.

Blue skies and 

fresh air

 have returned!

Now THAT is delight.

" Birds sing after a storm;
 why shouldn't people feel
as free to delight - ? "

Rose Kennedy

What is delighting
