VOG - Volcanic Ash-like fog #AlohaFriday

Sunset "vog" at Turtle Bay on O'ahu

VOG is not an acronym for a hotel chain or a cruise line in Hawai'i.
 
The term "vog" describes the atmospheric haze - a lung-tickling fog, caused by Big Island's Kilauea volcanic eruptions of the Big Island's Kilauea.

Although it makes breathing uncomfortable for some, it provides beautiful sunsets for all.

    Do they use this word on the tv weather reports?

    I do love beautiful sunsets but I'd never before thought of all the people suffering with the vog so I can gaze at a red sky.

    I'd suffer through some Vog for a beautiful sunset.

    Gosh, I'd heard of smog but never vog, maybe because there're no volcanoes around here. Lovely sunset.

    @mooderino yes, on the news here in Hawaii they do use the official term VOG to describe the weather condition.
