Vog

[JerryCarr]

Here in central HPP we only notice vog a few days a year, although the last few episodes have seemed to have thicker visible haze than a few years ago. This is probably because the total emissions from the summit and Pu'u O'o are up significantly. My own opinion is that it is far less bothersome at my location than the smog in Atlanta was. Vog varies dramatically from spot to spot in East Hawaii, and official monitoring sites are few and far between. This results in making assumptions based on amateur observation, but Punawebbers are generous in sharing their experience.

Welcome to the forum, Cruz, and I hope your research is fruitful. The amount of information on Punaweb is amazing, and the search function can open up a lot of it. Just ask about the rest.

Cheers,
Jerry
