davo01 Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Since we moved into a high level apartment it became clear that 9/10 days Bangkok is covered in a thick haze, Today is almost white out Can anyone tell me is this due to the humidity or just straight up pollution?

yourauntbob Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 It seems to me a lot of both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davo01 Posted April 9, 2013 Author Share Posted April 9, 2013 It seems to me a lot of both. You mean like a pollution slurry? It does make great sunsets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phuturatica Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I think it's a bit of both... Pollution and humidity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morakot Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I currently read 20% humidity on my device which is low, but not uncommon at this time of the year in Bangkok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavyDrinker Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Its pure pollution. Come out to the suburbs and you can see it hanging over BKK like a pall, especially at this time of year when there's no rain to wash away the dust. Some days you can't even see BKK at all... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamSipEt Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Its a lot worse up in Chiang Mai which is why I here breathing the "clean" air Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kotsak Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 (edited) It's been dry these last days, so it must be pollution.. I see the same from my apartment (26th Floor).. I clean my car every second day, the amount of soot and dust that gets accumulated on it is amazing even it sits parked in the condo's car park..

Metapod Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 You know there is a funny thing about this. I have ashtma and have had issues with breathing western countries. For some reason the air in Bangkok makes me feel like my lungs have double the capacity. Pollution / Humidity / Haze/ etc. whatever it is, it does wonders for me.
