Another one bites the dust

by witsandnuts on February 7, 2010

It was not due to fog, but this one’s taken on a recent sandstormy day.

This is me trying to document the rarity of dust that day from the window.

It rained last Friday, and there were droplets yesterday and this morning. (Yes, droplets are big news here!) That was the first time I witnessed a February rain in the Gulf. Maybe, the nature is taking its course to wash off the dust?

How’s the weather in your area?

Last week there was a sandstorm here and it was getting warmer. Akala ko winter was over. But suddenly it was cold yesterday and much colder today. Brrrr…

Haay, we also had a few hours of shamal last Thursday evening.

It rained here too in Saudi the next morning. Pero mas lumamig ngayon! Akala ko tapos na ang cold season…

After three years of drought, we had significant rainfall this winter. And we had droplets too in the last couple of days and are also expecting more droplets next week.

ohmygulay, ano ba yang weather na yan. nakakatakot namang lumabas pag ganyan.

weather here in sydney is weird as well. it’s summer and it’s been raining a lot. some days we have 4 seasons: winter sa umaga, autumn ng mid morning, summer ng tanghali, spring ng gabi. kaloka! pag sinusuwerte may bonus pang ulan.

Oh wow. Nakakapuwing yan! Weather all over the globe is getting crazier every minute. Dito naman, maaga ang summer. So I can just imagine the heat that will strike us when real summer comes in.
