Weather Report from Kandahar

From our on the spot correspondent: Lt.(N) R. A. Brunner, intrepid reporter

It's been fairly cool here actually. Need a coat in the morning and afternoon. At night it goes down to around 2C and during the day up to around 18C

Not the over 60C it was a couple of months ago. They don't really know what it was since all the thermometers only go to 60...

It's starting the rainy season now too. So the talc-like sand turns into concrete. Everything has a fine coating of dust. It just gets everywhere.

  1. Normally I'd much favor heat over cold--but SIXTY degrees C seems a little excessive. Particularly if you're also wearing combat gear. Or, well, anything more than shorts.
