Haze in Penang

Picture taken this morning

Picture taken on 12 August 2005

It's getting worsen this morning. If you look at the picture posted, you'll be surprise how serious it is now. Checked with DOE's API index page does not help to understand the seriousness since data posted is one day late. I think I will have to stay at home tommorow instead of my plan to do go hiking at Mt. Erskine. Called my wife asking her to stay at home or wear mask if she plans to go out.
