air quality
Time has changed. Air quality used to be very good in this part of the country. I remember I used to climb the mountain and I could see the ocean as far as it went. Today, I can't even see farther than a mile. Even after a rain, you would be lucky to be able to see that tallest building.
Are there any mistakes?
Thanks.

In the US, we'd say "Times have changed" not "Time has changed" and the use of "a" in "after a rain" would be okay - it implies "after a rainstorm."
I agree with Opti on the "right to the horizon" since the sea obviously continues past that too.
