More Dust 5 March 2008

00duststormsunrise.jpg

This is what the morning looks like. There is dust in the air, there is dust on my windows. This dust is not like sand blowing around; there isn’t anything accumulating on the roads, at least from what I can see. The temperature has dropped once again, and it is 57°F / 14°C at 0630 with “heavy blowing widespread dust”.

  1. Yepp, I missed my jacket on the first morning round at 4 a.m.
    It was quit chilly.

  3. No matter how many showers I take when it’s dusty, I still feel gritty and miserable. We have had our share of it this season, haven’t we 😦 I wish it was snow, at least we could ski…

  4. Imagine they close kuwait off with some kind of environmental cover to ward off dust and extreme heat, and kuwait would be a tropical paradise. My imagination is too wild.

  5. “Walking” hem is to far fetched.
    In the summer I will, yes 😉
    Now it’s usually a quick hop outside and back in until 7 or so.
    Hubby gets up at 3 and I usually shortly after 🙂

    And once again I can’t get that smell out of my nose. I knew something was up when hubby woke up coughing last night 😦

  6. Ms. Baker – No kidding! And the gritty face, the gritty ears. . . .I just feel so GRITTY! (*breaking into song* I feel gritty . . . oh so gritty!. . . )

    Chirp – I LOVE that idea – like an umbrella over Kuwait, climate controlled temperature, recycling, using solar energy – it would be paradise. Oh! Wait! public transportation that works and is NICE.

    Nicole – LLLOOLLLLLL @ you and the dogs. Yeh, the cough is bad.
