More on the weather and other stuff

I was listening to the weather report on the radio the other day and, no joke, the announcer read: 
"Sunday, hot, sunny and humid with zero percent chance of precipitation; 
Monday, hot, sunny and humid with zero percent chance of precipitation; 
Tuesday, hot, sunny and humid with zero percent chance of precipitation; 
Wednesday, hot, sunny and humid with zero percent chance of precipitation; 
Thursday, hot, sunny and humid with zero percent chance of precipitation; 
and for the weekend, hot, sunny and humid with zero percent chance of precipitation." 

Yes, he read those last 6 words for each day, I can't make this stuff up.

This past Tuesday I was checking the weather on my phone app and the report was 34°C (93°F) with winds of 24 mph, wind chill was 40°C (104°F). Hmmm, I always thought the wind chill lowered the temperature.

Yesterday, Thursday, we where in the midst of a sand storm, not all that big, and visibility was about 1/4 of a mile. I was in the bank for about an hour and a half and went from a clean car to one covered by dust.

The wind picked up over the evening and night so the sky was completely shut out. The absolute worst thing is that the wind was from the south, which apparently is rather rare here, that meant that in my bedroom, on the south side of the building, got the distinct whiff of the compound sewage treatment plant. Yuck, not all that pleasant a bedtime odor, I believe lavender is better to help one get to sleep.

Today, Friday, it is actually raining for a little bit. Thankfully cooler (28°C) but still a 14 mph wind.
