You beat me to it... last few days here have been dry and the air quality noticeably lower

This has been the best soggy season I can remember over several years in Kalasin. It's rained most days at least a little, there have only been one or two damaging storms, no flooding and it's lasted longer than usual and morphed neatly into the cool season.

TMD could not predict a wet d-r-e-a-m. 2nd time 4 days they are down.????
