hi what radar are you on about do you work there?
damn right we got peace it sounds so great for once
lovely day no plane noise!
Probably won't be able to see anything. Maybe slightly lighter (less blue) more diffuse light.
so my chance to have an easier day than normal would have been great if i was at work.

Latest synopsis
Note how the ash forecast charts are following the contours

yes they did, it's just that humans are in more places so they get hurt/affected more often.

Will this cloud of ash actually drop any ash on the UK?

this is amazing and exciting...
although i do feel sorry for the people that had flights cancelled etc, but still, would you really want to fly through clouds of ash!? i think not!
just been looking at some of the pictures on flickr... look amazing, am i allowed to post a link to it?
