Saharan dust in the air again. Notice the warning somewhat after the fact although notice dust itself, or rather limited visibility as a result of same as soon as we look out. Can’t see where sea meets sky as both a pretty similar shade of hazy blue grey. Crazy windy as well. Gusts to 35 km/h or force 4 (which is a range anyway). Would have guessed more but no expert. Varies constantly but what we assume would be a good drying day nearly results in sheet making whole drying rack windborne.  


Can disregard one warning in the news. Headline says that 27 people have died from eating a type of Mediterranean puffer fish. Read further and turns out that these were gourmets from various Mediterranean countries and over a period of twenty years. Extraordinary measures of avoidance not required.
