Rosy Dawn with Chills
Wooo HOOO, Kuwait! Look at this temperature at 7 ayem!
And then look at the humidity and the dew point! No wonder we all feel a little clammy!
The dawn is moving further and further to the south, and this morning was briefly rosy as the sun struggled to break through the thick haze:
When my husband and I prayed together this morning, we prayed to be able to keep our minds and hearts on the things that are really important, and not the things of the world. As financial empires crumble, we want to be thankful for all the riches with which we have been blessed – our marriage, our son and his wife, our families – for good jobs, and good friends – and we pray to be safe on the roads.
Even the Qatteri Cat likes morning prayer time. 🙂

May God answer all your prayers for you and your loved ones.
I know what a dew point is, but I never understood its relevance? Please explain in human language if you can be bothered 🙂
I strongly believe that weather affects ones mood!!! hehehehe
Bu Yousef – I think it is the temperature at which the water which is mixed into the air making it humid, the temperature at which it becomes liquid as opposed to water-incorporated-in-air. Like I think that is when it forms droplets. Now I will have to run go look on Wikipedia. 🙂 (BTW, thank you for your blessing. )
Dew point
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The dew point (sometimes spelled dewpoint) is the temperature to which a given parcel of air must be cooled, at constant barometric pressure, for water vapor to condense into water. The condensed water is called dew. The dew point is a saturation point.
When the dew point temperature falls below freezing it is often called the frost point, as the water vapor no longer creates dew but instead creates frost or hoarfrost by deposition.
The dew point is associated with relative humidity. A high relative humidity indicates that the dew point is closer to the current air temperature. Relative humidity of 100% indicates that the dew point is equal to the current temperature (and the air is maximally saturated with water). When the dew point stays constant and temperature increases, relative humidity will decrease.
At a given barometric pressure, independent of temperature, the dew point indicates the mole fraction of water vapor in the air, and therefore determines the specific humidity of the air.
The dew point is an important statistic for general aviation pilots, as it is used to calculate the likelihood of carburetor icing and fog, and estimate the height of the cloud base.
So, LOL Bu Yousef, it’s something PILOTS know!
Oh Ansam! I know it affects me! When a thunderstorm is coming, whatever happens with the atmosphere, I get really really depressed, for no reason! Like I don’t know what I am depressed about, but I have all the physical symptoms of depression – guesing it has to do with atmospheric pressure.
So – think we’ll have stormy weather soon?
