Sludge weather continues

 

It's horrible sludge air this morning.  Haven't experienced that in a long time, and I threw that memory out of my mind.  If we didn't have smoke, we would just have vehicle smog.

In the good old days of the warm cycle, we would have a lot of ocean heat energy, making powerful air plumes, and sweeping this horrible stuff away.  No, and it's all clange.

Good news that all the 'celebrity' heat waves have gone in the US and Europe.

 

These serve as the 'horrible truth of clange' for a day or two, and then it's fish wrap.  You will never see a Guard headline reading 'Heat wave is gone'.  There's no news value in that.  And who cares about a heatwave in the jungle?  I remember a jungle trip once where we were dying in the heat, and all the locals said we were lucky to come between heat waves...
