The Canadian east coast was also blanketed hard today (October 4th). The local radar station (Halifax) was 'non-operational', a mode I assume it goes into when the spray is so thick that the chaff shows as precipitation. Leads to uncomfortable questions from the public. Better just to shut the radar reading down and turn it back on when the spraying has stopped.


It's been on 'non-operational' mode since the spraying started this morning.
