Weather Stuff

The heat here in Ohio has finally reached the unbearable threshold. It was 83º when I left for work this morning at 6:30AM. The should break in a couple of days though. I was watching CNN this morning and they were talking about the remnants of a Saharan sandstorm preparing to hit Florida. This sand has blown all the way from Africa to the US. It's supposed to create great sunrises and sunsets.

At 6:15 CNN went to a live shot from a local tower cam and it was still pitch black. I have to admit I was a little puzzled. It was light outside here and Miami is black. It turns out Miami is only about 180 mile east of Columbus. I thought it was much farther. Their sunrise was about twenty minutes behind us today.
