i dont think so, you drive into the utah valley then salt lake valley from down south and the crud factor is overwhelming, guess if you live in it all the time you don't see it
Reading the report I noticed that the measurements for Utah County were taken in Spanish Fork. Anyone who lives in south county recognized the value of the SF Canyon winds in keeping the pollution north. So is the SF measurement really a true representation of air quality in Utah County?
I was kind of thinking to myself that it couldn't get much worse but after watching the Olympics in Beijing and seeing anything on Los Angeles, it could be MUCH worse. Granted, on certain days you can see our air (not a good thing) but we are working on it now and if we all continue to do our part, soon we might not have to be embarrassed by our air.
How did it get better? Did it just magically improve?
