I've just heard that there's another hwang-sa and rain storm warning. How long is this crap going to last? Any idea? 
Stay indoors and be safe. |

| You're interpreting the colour scale backwards. I hope you weren't hyperventilating out of fear in the 'dreaded blue zone'. Just click on 'English'. |

| Is there anyway to get Hwangsa forecasts? How do they do these warnings? |

Rain is good. Rain will remove aerosols and pollutants from the air and out that crap back on the ground where it belongs. |

Yeah, I didn't understand how there could be both at the same time.
I just hope the rain wases up enough so I can get to "church" this evening. |

Yep.
Rteacher, on the army site that shows the yellow dust levels, are any of those bases near Busan? |

| I hate the yellow dust. I can't tell if I'm getting sick or if its because of the dust. |

| Usually I find the dust makes me more sick this time of year here... I've been sick for pretty much two months straight now. Mostly sore throat/ stuffy nose/coughing. My humidifier helps a lot at night, except when there's a duststorm blowing in. Boo yellow dust! |
