While you might think that I’ve been operating in a strange haze, think again. I’m not talking about myself. I’m talking about the air here the past few days.
I just rechecked pollen.com. Prescott is looking pretty good according to that site. Yet over the past week we’ve seen a strange haze floating over the mountains and hanging in the sky. It’s noticeable. The mountains in the distance are muted, almost blotted out at points.
I’ve heard a range of reasons for this odd phenomena…..
- Pollen
- Water vapor
- Dust due to the high winds
- A controlled burn in the distance (I can’t confirm that one).
Whatever it is, it is bothering me a bit. And other people are having some allergy issues too. Hmmmm….who knows what it is.
Yesterday I complained about the haze to my friend Josh. He agreed, it’s been annoying. He hasn’t taken outdoor photos in a while because the sky and horizon is too muted for anything good. Ah yes, that’s where the pictures have been. :) Hidden behind a haze!
Once things clear I’ll get some more fun photos up. In the meantime….well, go take a look at Burt’s blog, he always has cool photos.

cough…splutter…(labored intake of breath)
I am finding myself quite bothered by this “haze” of which has been blotting out our long distance landscaping…Honestly? I can’t figure out whether I’m sick, or I’m allergies, or now it’s one moving into the other? All I know is, I’m tired, and quite cranky…which is making me sad and confused…(and wanting to hand a written disclaimer to everyone I may come into contact with…or hide inside a small HEPA’d area)
waaaaah…
see what I mean?
