A good way to notice air pollution

To really notice air pollution in a more humid part of the country, I heartily suggest taking a vacation of a week or more to the desert Southwest, then returning at the height of the late-spring rainy season, when the higher humidity — higher for this part of the country for this time of year, not just higher compared to the Great Basin and Mojave deserts — and oft-stagnant air traps pollutants.

In short, suburban Dallas can stink in April after a visit to Utah, Arizona and desert California.
