Barely There Sunrise

This morning, I was up, looking out my window-on-the-world, hanging on to my coffee for dear live at 0600 in the morning, Qatteri Cat was with me, purring and making those little kitten noises that mean “Hiya, Mom, any chance you’ll pour me some fresh cat food?” and I have my camera . . . but there is no sunrise. There is light, but whatever is hanging over Kuwait is SO thick that the sun can’t break through, not for half an hour after sunrise.

This is what it looks like when you can finally see the sun:

What is really scary – we are BREATHING that stuff!

It is 72°F / 22°C at 0700 (Wooo Hoooo!) and althought it doesn’t feel so humid today, we have the possibility of rain later on this week. And look at those temperatures! Get out the long underwear!

  1. Long underwear! You must be kidding 😉 I must admit I was cold this morning but then the heat and humidity came through.

    Was it just me or did anyone else see lightning last night?

  3. Well yeh, I was joking, but once it starts getting cooler here, it can cool off in a hurry – Lightening – oh no! I fell asleep early again, I must have missed it! I love lightning!

    Mimfoy – You were really cold? Where will you go back to – maybe Florida!
