London Fog and Ash, UK:

Bad news. Heathrow Airport over in London is closed AGAIN today because of the horrible volcano over in Iceland.

Yep, Europe's busiest airport closed around 10 minutes ago, due to a dense cloud of volcanic ash that is once again spewing across England from Iceland, and it could be closed until Wednesday.

The airspace over London's Heathrow Airport closed at around Midnight local time (Los Angeles) today.

A dense cloud of volcanic ash drifting from Iceland has prompted officials to close airports in northern England, Scotland and Northern Ireland. No flights were allowed to and from the Isle of Man on Sunday. All three airports in Northern Ireland were closed to air traffic. The no-fly zone also included Manchester and Liverpool in northern England, as well as Prestwick in Scotland, the National Air Traffic Service said.

"Heathrow flights will resume from 07:00 today. However, delays and cancellations are likely due to restrictions being applied by NATS to Heathrow's airspace. We therefore strongly advise passengers planning to fly today to contact their airline before leaving for the airport. Thank you for your patience during this latest period of disruption."

The restrictions affecting Heathrow — as well as Gatwick, Stansted and London City airports.

So, to my readers in the UK, thanks for this update. Hang in there, and oh, btw, if you are planning a trip to the UK from Los Angeles or the West Coast, please check the Heathrow Airport website for all the latest news.

Meet Randy Economy

You may know me from my role as the Senior Advisor and Official Media Spokesman for the Recall Gavin Newsom campaign that established a worldwide blitz of interviews. I conducted more than 2,200 media interviews on behalf of “The People’s Recall” during a 10-month period from November 2020 to September 2021. The iconic magazine Mother Jones in a dramatic feature article called me “A ‘Superhero Pirate’ Radio Host, (and) Gavin Newsom’s Strangest—and Most Dangerous—Threat. Meet Randy Economy, the man behind the effort to recall California’s governor.” I appeared on more than 330 media outlets around the world in my capacity with RecallGavin2020. Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, Newsmax, NBC Nightly News, ABC News, as well as the Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Politico, and dozens of other media outlets aired featured reports on my work on behalf of “The People’s Recall.” I am and will always consider myself to be a journalist. Sometimes I think I bleed ink. My talents as an Investigative Journalists in California earned me FIVE top awards from the prestigious Los Angeles Press Club in 2013, 2014, and 2016. I am tenacious. My reporting over the years has led to the prosecution of several elected officials in California. While working for a tiny community newspaper in Southeast Los Angeles County, I worked doggedly to expose the biggest public corruption case in Los Angeles County history when I unearthed a massive pay to play scheme inside the Assessor’s Office that led to the arrest of then Assessor John R. Noguez and four others. However, politics has been in my DNA since I was a child. I have worked on more than 300 political campaigns as a consultant and advisor since 1982 for candidates from all sides of the political spectrum including Democrats and Republicans, and even Libertarians. I am also a small business owner, serving as the President and CEO of Hot Water Studio & Production, LLC. My company works with media outlets across the state, nation, and world exposing public corruption via several new media platforms. I have also overcome personal challenges. I am legally blind with zero vision in my right eye and only 40 percent vision remaining in my left eye. I sometimes wear an eyepatch due to my failed vision. (Hence the nickname of “America’s Political Pirate.”
