Met a couple at the volcano today who are from near Regina. I can’t recall exactly where. She, along with quite a few other visitors, were wearing shorts! …
Went up to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park this afternoon to catch episode 38 of the current eruption at Halemaumau Crater, which began last December. It was cool but comfortable; many visitors wore shorts.
From USGS website: The associated plume, composed of water vapor and SO2 gas (possibly with Pele's hair and fine ash), currently has a maximum height of ~15000 feet (4500 m) above ground level.
The plume is dispersed depending on atmospheric conditions. The immediate concern is laze (lava haze), more commonly referred to as vog here (volcanic fog). It’s nasty and can cause respiratory problems. (More pics on the Photos taken with the iPhone 16 thread.) …

Yes. It was-21°C when I left Regina last night. Rose to about -7 at the Alberta border and then dropped again to about -17. At least Regina was clear of snow. That started west of Moose Jaw and was blowing well across the highway.
