La Prensa, one of the major daily newspapers for Honduras has reported that ALL four airports in Honduras are closed due to haze caused by massive forest fires. Tegucigalpa, San Pedro Sula, La Ceiba, and Roatan have been closed since yesterday. They may open tomorrow if minimum operating conditions can be met. Anyone flying into San Pedro Sula will be going to San Salvador, El Salvador. Please check with your airline before heading to the airport.
The entire country is blanketed in an unbearable smokey haze. Hospital emergency room visits have increased by 30-40% with most of the increase due to respiratory problems. We cannot see the LOW hills outside of town, let alone the mountains because of the smoke.
This was taken at 5p.m. yesterday afternoon. The mountains are not visible, it should be bright and sunny, not feeling like sunset.
