19th November!!
More than half of the month of November gone and now we have the feel of proper winters.
Sweaters, Sweatshirts and Jackets are out.
Max was 24 C and min of 12 C.
Cold winds were blowing in the evening.
Yet more than the cold, toxic AQI level of greater than 490 is much more deadly and harmful.
On a lighter note, if you want to feel how smoking 1000s of Cigarettes feel, you can come to the northern parts of India !

Mountains are much better off.
Conditions become apt for severe pollution at this time of the year due to multiple factors - vehicular pollution, stubble burning and industrial emissions.
Plus many places have much lesser tree cover as compared to what was there some 50 years back.

Consumed by Roads, Highways, Residential complexes, Government Buildings, Malls, Agricultural land, Railway Lines and Airports.
To summarise, consumed by the ever expanding and rapidly exploding population and human civilization!!
And now nature is returning thd favor in kind !

It is still a little bit warm in the Lake Charles area with the sun shining outside and the temperature in the mid 70s Fahrenheit outside.
