I thought this evening (thurs) looked very yellow dusty so I fired up the US army's dust meter http://www.korea.amedd.army.mil/webapp/yellowSand/Default.asp; however, it now asks for a user name and password. Anybody know another other source where one can get yellow dust info?

This, http://www.airkorea.or.kr/airkorea/eng/realtime/main.jsp, is still a good reference but doesn't say anything about the dust.

Air quality is terrible Thurs night. No jogging in the wind.

Adjust the bar at the top to say 'Table' to see the breakdown for all the cities.

There is an Android App for that. Search on "yellow dust."

We're at 355 ug/m3 now, in Seoul. I start to notice dirty air at 180. 400 for 2 hours brings out the warnings (probably were warnings already for it today). We were at just 17 this morning.
