Caveat: Smowy Day

When the days are smoggy, it's hard to know whether to blame China, or instead Korea's endogenous smog-makers. These days, I'm more inclined to assume it's Beijing's latest export across the Yellow Sea, rather than completely home-grown smog.

Today, walking to work, it was strange, vaguely apocalyptic weather. Heavy yellowish-brown haze hung in the sky, evidently smog, but it was also lightly snowing – big, fluffy flakes that normally make one think of the "clean" feel of fresh winter weather. I think smog mixed with snow should be called "smow."
