RE: Just some thoughts I've been having and a couple of snowy pictures.
What are some of your thoughts on the climate and have you noticed any changes in the latest years? Please let me know in the comments below.
I live in Nigeria, so snow is what you'll never find here. But then, while it snows there, we experience what is called harmattan over here. During the harmattan season, the weather is normally cold, freezy and dusty, making everything so dry.
What harmattan looks like
However, the harmattan season this time is different from what I used to know during my childhood days. It's a little lighter now unlike before. The dust ain't that much again, the cold too, everything just seems to change and I'm missing the old harmattan I used to know. And oh! There used to be lots of cracks lips and people using petroleum jelly or Vaseline here and there. Today, it's no more.
And do you know why?
That looks like monsoon but with dust! Dustsoon hehe. Climate change affects all regions differently and we're just starting to see the after-effects of what using so much energy so rapidly will do to our global environment. At least you can save some money on using (ironically enough) petroleum jelly. I feel bad that demand and consumption in the west has been a primary driver of this change for so long, and that people in other countries will have the least amount of options available to them to deal with it.
Yeah that's how it is. It looks very cool I have to say. what kind of temperatures do you usually have under this season? It looks like it could be really difficult to drive a car in that weather.
Thanks for you input :)

Are you saying that you prefer it dustier?
