Here comes the dust!

Dusty Skyline

When I woke up this morning, looking out the window, it was misty, that's what I thought. Moments later, reading on JoongAng Daily news article, apparently, it's no mist but dust. I know this is an annual affair just like haze back in Malaysia, but I still had some doubt about it, so I checked out the Korea Meteorological Administration website, and this is what I found out.

The portion I highlighted in red, shows 구름많음, 황사, which means cloudy, yellow dust. So my doubt was clear, but not the sky. 황사 (黃沙), please go away quick! I wonder what happens to KL. When I left, it was hazy, but Met Service back home stated it was not from the neighbour. Well, hope that in Klang Valley has clearer sky.
