Vog

Today I learned a new word. And you guessed it! It is Vog. This is when Volcanic emissions combine with Fog. I have never had a use for this word before but this is the second time in less than 2 weeks that we have had Voggy conditions on the Island due to a volcano on some island near Saipan. It smells somewhat like rotten eggs. I am told there is also smoke due to some fires some place in Asia. Either way it just stank around here today and people were advised to stay indoors.
