Yeah, I notice that, in the drought of summer. I've never seen a non-clear but sunny day in January. It's the wind driven dust and agricultural activity of summer that limits visibility.

I suspect we'll have further shelter in place orders this summer, so we may get an opportunity to test these hypothesis.
