Quote:
"Fog or smog? For years, China’s meteorologists have been telling the country’s urban residents that what looks and smells suspiciously like that latter is, in fact, just the former.
"Case in point: A thick grey cloud currently enveloping northern China that has closed highways across multiple provinces and caused more than 300 flights into Beijing to be delayed or cancelled. While state media have described the cloud as a 'heavy fog,' millions of posts on popular Chinese microblogging service Sina Weibo and other Internet sites are treating it as something else.
