Why isn't everything covered in ash?

Some ash goes into the atmosphere to block sunlight. And I expect they have been hosing down everything.

It's not ash. I think that is pumice, which is maybe worse as far as car finish goes, but probably better as far as the engine goes which I'd say is more important.

Or if you mean to ask why there isn't any ash, but only pumice, then it all has to do with winds which could separate the ash from heavier pumice.
