nah, don't think you will really see anything to be honest. sky's not quite as blue as it normally is this time of time and this weather. sort of hazy, but nothing really out the ordinary for this weather.

wonder when it'll start settling on stuff?

The dust is up very high in the atmosphere... if it rains we may get quite a bit... but otherwise its not going to snow down....

The dust would have made tonights sunset very very amazing if it were not for all the clouds!

This is fallout from the Icelandic banking crisis which has lead to a a catastrophic international misunderstanding.

What Alistair Darling meant to tell Iceland was to send us the CASH now!!!!

What I cannot understand is, according to BBC news this morning, this ash is above 20,000 feet and aircraft normally fly above 30,000 feet, so why can the aircraft not fly below 20,000 feet at say 10,000 or 15,000 feet. I know that it is more economical for the planes to fly above 30,000 feet as the air is thinner, etc.

Did anyone see the news last night... where do they get the idiots to interview and why do they afford them air time (or at least not correct them, so the other idiots out there don't all nod in agreement!).

One pillock was moaning about the situation saying that it was ridiculous that flights were cancelled as the planes should just fly over or under the ash-plume!
