WELCOME HARMATTAN

  I am a hot bath freak not until the emergence of dry season where I feel hot from within and all I yearn for is having chilled water running down from my head to toe.
The routine of switching on the heater some minutes before bath time slowly fades away………I look forward to the coldness of the water from the shower running down my body..Some days I spend minutes that linger to hours under the shower. Some other days, I begin to reminisce; from my wishes, to my achievements, to making decisions, to the activities of my day still under the shower. Sometimes I wander away to the world of thoughts and imaginations and most times I am brought back by my mother’s voice yelling at me for staying in the bathroom for so long and wasting water. During this hot weather that I am not a fan of I have learnt to appreciate every situation especially the ones I cannot change rather than complaining ;like the weather. My cold baths have become a part of my day that I look forward to until this very beautiful morning when I rushed to the bathroom, ran the shower, and hopped into the tub only to rush out because my once cold shower had become too cold for comfort, and this was for no other reason than the grand and rather unannounced entry of Harmattan.
During the harmattan, one feels the cold dry and dusty wind mostly over the West African subcontinents usually between the end of November and Middle March. The Harmattan can be a very interesting season  but it also has adverse effects. The dusty air can make vision blurry. The Harmattan haze is when the dusty air blocks the sun. The weaker the haze, the clearer the sky. This harmattan haze can prevent flights because the Pilot’s vision will be limited. The trunk of trees can also be broken by the dry air.
In my next post, I will be sharing Safety tips for Harmattan…….Happy Harmattan.
