I have never seen anything like this before. I have taken a walk of at least two miles every day without fail for more than thirty years ... not today though.

It's a shame to break a habit of so many years, so, advisable or not, I have been for a brisk three-mile walk. It's not quite so bad as it looks once you stride out into it, but I have never seen dust this thick in my eleven years in Cyprus. It is deserted out there - far fewer cars than usual and absolutely no pedestrians.

Nicosia today - daytime! - as seen in the Cyprus Mail. Pretty similar here in Limassol.

Never seen anything like it in my whole life, not even in the Gulf where i lived for a few years.
yesterday at 3 pm everything was fine here in Nicosia then within 2 hours this happened.
There are suspicions as to what really caused it.
It will take them 15 days to analyze what we are actually breathing :?

Going for walks/jogging in this dust is worst for your health than if you had stayed home smoking cigarettes ;) And Tim... are we to believe that in over thirty years you have never been sick enough or the weather was never bad enough to keep you home???

:shock: I see this at least once a year in Nicosia and it’s usually yellowish but this time it’s grey.
