Snow on a cold tin roof
First, my apologies for not keeping up the blog.
I returned home Nov. 1 and have spent much of my time working on other projects, visiting family, reading and golfing.
But I'll be heading back to Afghanistan in a few weeks and feel it's time to slip back into the groove.
There'll be more offerings in the future. Right now, time for a little weather report courtesy of Lt. Col. Mike "Nuke" O'Neill, of Goose Creek.
"This picture shows the weather that we have
been having lately," O'Neill said in a recent email that included a shot of snow on the corrugated steel roof atop a B-hut at Camp Phoenix in Kabul.
"Snow that has fallen on the roof melts and slides
down during the day, and re-freezes at night," O'Neill wrote. "Just thought it would be
a unusual picture."
BTW, daytime highs in Kabul are in the mid 30s, and at night it slides down into the mid teens.
