Cyclone Gonu
We have just survived the worst storm in recorded history hitting the Oman coast and continuing up to Iran. Winds over 200 km/h (Google it).
The sea has gone from bathtub calm two weeks ago at Snoopy Island (see post below), to waves running up to 5 meters.
The mid-afternoon sun is obscured by the sand and the dust. Humidity is over 80%. Here on the other side of the mountains we had unique swirling winds and near zero sandstorm conditions.
But at the end of the day the dust and humidity clears and the mountains are clear for now.
And the boys are off running ........ waste no time for the weekend.

I just heard about the storm on the news here. Was it just wind, or did you actually get rain??
On our side of the mountains we only got wind. Which caused the sand and dust problem. Scraping and cleaning today (the maid is here).
