So far there is no health warning from the Press, even when the PM10 is at Larnaca 10x higher then the critical point of 50 PM10.
This time we are lucky in Paphos as right now it is only 26 PM10 unlike Larnaca with 541 !!!!

Coming into Polemi from the B7, we were wondering if there was a fire in the Troodos.

Driving towards Polis from Pomos this morning, you couldn't see the Akamas.

Numerous helicopter & light planes with buckets slung beneath passing over Kissonerga today, so must be a fire in Pegia or Akamas.

Yesterday evening there was this brown cloud coming from that direction.
