And while this seems to happen almost every year in the dry season, it has been exceptionally bad this week with the haze and smog reaching dangerous levels that can be very unhelpful to your health.
It might have cleared a bit today, but still NOT good.
The Top End is beset for over a week with overcast windy cloudy weather and a few light rain showers around the region. None in our gauge, but certainly been rain around with falls up to 3-4mm, but most 1-2mm. It is still very cloudy tonight, and wind has dropped, so humidity is up.
Might be a bit sunnier and clearer tomorrow, or so they say.
Cloudy weather means the solar hot water system needs an electrical boost, and with our current shortest day of the year it is currently just tepid - not good for showering!
So............cloud on both sides of the equator. Not common at all!
UPDATE - on 26 June, HAIL recorded in Singapore.........definitely crazy.
