Visibility was/is (it's night time now) a little over a 1/4 mile, and I could see the haze between me and the building across the street. This is Seattle proper, not the east side (of Lake Washington) where they've been at 350-400. I'd be happy if all those rainy days had a "1" instead of a "0" in front of the decimal point to just clear the yuck out of the air and off of everything. I am readying my older Paramount for rain and winter duties and hope to be ready by the end of the weekend.
