Keswickman and DLP -
Oahu gets a brownish/dark yellow haze when the volcanic ash blows over from the Big Island (Hawaii) and mixes with smog. We call it "vog". It usually occurs when the winds changes direction and is closely related to what we call Kona Winds / Kona Weather. It's not at all windy and it usually brings in extreme heat and humidity. The vog can last for days in this weather, making lives miserable if they don't have air conditioning. And the longer it hangs around, the browner the vog gets.
Also, as Keswickman is supposedly leaving from Santa Barbara, maybe it could be smoke from a fire? Smog from L.A.?
