smog or fog? (or that pesky yellow sand...)

i wish i knew the answer. there were a lot more koreans wearing face masks today... something you see on a regular basis, but it seemed like almost everyone had one today. here is a 'before' picture from the roof of my building:

and here is what it looks like today:
i like to think that it's fog... but i can't be sure. maybe this is the asian dust finally raining down on us. these definitely aren't storm clouds as there is no rain, and doesn't feel like it will rain. it's actually quite warm out. kind of scary to think about what i'm breathing in...

just had a call from a friend, and she says someone else told her it's the dust. and looking out my window i can see a buildup of it on the window... don't know how i'm going to manage to clean that off... i hope it rains! anyway, here are a couple more pics of my walk through the park today:

the colour seems a little off because of the colour of the sky... but i didn't adjust it so that you could see it... anyway, guess i'll stay indoors for the rest of the day to avoid breathing in the crap as much as possible! maybe i should pick up one of those masks... ;)
