isn't this the exact same forecast we've seen for month upon month now?

It was 16°C at 6am today, here in Udon.

 

Had to wear a scarf when I took the dawg out.

Fog, do you mean smog ???? 

Cool with increased chance of unhealthy levels of 2.5PM in the forecast. Today marks the official start of burning season. Enjoy the festivities.????
