Today is a dark day. Winds are steadily growing stronger. A fog has come down on Kuwait. It's not all that surprising as we've had a good run of nice weather. As it's Kuwait it's always been on and off. Forget the fact that we are in December for a sec. Think about how diffrent it was from yesterday. As a matter of fact it's changing so quickly all you have to do is look outside. You'd think a huricain was upon us. Greatfully no such thing occurs in Kuwait. Though we do get bad winds that just keep speeding up because we're in the middle of noware.
As we all know even being someplace isn't enough to stop mother nature. Her will is stronger than any concrete or any object built by man. Even that which is built to fight against harsh conditions. I say this today because I just took a walk outside for a quick bite. My gitra(traditional headware) nearly got blown off. The next block over is invisible from a mixture of dust and fog. Tall buildings seem to be floating in mid air, at least the area that can be seen. The current of air is strong even through the cracks of the buildings.
It seems kind of clear but there are areas which are worse off. I hope it doesn't last for the rest of the day. Oh! To add insult to injury, before the situation escalated to as it is, this morning as I was parking my car an Indian came to clean. Wouldn't you know even though I needed it, that th weather would get this bad. Even though it almost never rains if it does I won't forget it. I can't wait to see if my car is still clean after this mess. That is to say if it clears up. I'll post an update telling you which it is... Till then you just gota get through without me…
Update: my car is semi-clean... With just the right amount of dust on it.
